1975 Webco Factory Issue
« on: October 09, 2006, 09:34 PM »
No decals, original ones on the way

Former Webco team rider Rick Courteau # 66 (on a different Webco)

    


This one belongs to him.  It was one of the first "extended" (read XL) frame

    

Webco Factory issued team Frame
Ashtabula Reinforced Fork with no stampings
Motomag Is
Carlisle Aggresor Tires

    


Schwinn Headset
Schwinn seat clamp
Schwinn Diamond Crank, sprocket and BB
Wald Post
Webco bars (?) came with the stuff I got from Rick
Waffle Grips

    

Union Pedals
Vinyl Snap pads
Messinger steel base seat (With birds/Dragons on the side)

Thanks a lot to Rick Courteau  for the frame and Sodbuster for the fork

PS Sorry Rick, been looking for a better pic.. :)

That picture kicks ass in my opinion.  Corona track mid 70's Rick Courteau (#66) on A Webco.  Robby "Dirtclod" O'Hare on another Webco.  Harry Leary on a JMC and some guy I can't remember on a Panda wearing an International BMX association jersey which was the sanctioning body that Steve Rink (later of pedalpower and Powerlite fame.) Steve Rink used to run Corona at the time.

Do like a webco rick. I have one of the modern versions from when Nico does(ex world champion) bought the name and started webco bycicles here in holland. Would still love to own an OG webco though. Like the motomags, nice touch.

If they were as strong as they weighed... they're very strong!
