Hutch questions...
jT Racing:
japanese welds are as good as or better than american welds. Americans on the whole think they are superior and also what they make(not everybody so don't jump down my neck). kuwahara, Japan. Tange, Japan, hutch diamondback haro raleigh(err) aero etc... the quality was second to none. Pre serial pro racer's are the most sought after, american trickstars are the most sought after. Don't know why???? got a pre serial pro racer myself but i wouldn't have been gutted with a jap version. :Great_Britain:

i got both trickstar ie taiwan and usa and i can`t fault the taiwan frame at all . there is other issue of the trickstar`s that are different ie frame stands .
regarding pro racer`s the only difference is that the hutch stamp isn`t a deep on the taiwan ones . i would wait othamas as pro racer do come up in this country and never really go very high compare to pk or skyway .

Hi Hutch, I have only just discovered this forum and when browsing through it I noticed you saying you knew alot about burners. I was given a raleigh super burner frame for christmas and I want to restore it. Can you help me because I know absolutely nothing about them (used to have one a long time ago). The frame is in really good condition and I bought some skyways. The original gold plastic is still on the frame, but I think I am going to remove that so the whole bike is chrome. The forks look crap and are black so I want to replace them, also the crank housing makes a noise when the pedals go round so maybe I need new bearings?
It would be great to hear from you
