when did the first twin toptube bike appear?

<< < (2/8) > >>

Moose:
Do you have a picture? Does it have a gusset of any kind?

Looptail or not?

oberonspacefruit:
no, its harder that that moose, but i really would value your help.

i had a twin toptube bike in 82, i dont have it know, but would like to try and source one, as it was my main bike.

it was, like i say already used.  oval forks and downtube.

Moose:
Oh........I get a feeling this is going to be a hard one   ???

Moose:
The only twintoptuber I can think of with an oval downtube was a first gen Vector freestyler, but they didn't come out until '83/'84 at the earliest. They also had a memerable shape, if you'd have had one you'd know it.

The only other thing I can think of is if it was a european manufacturer like Puegeot, Puch, MBK or BH. But I don't know if any of them specifically made a twin top tube bike with an oval down tube. Sorry

harris:
i got offered one last week ,rubbish mags and parts frame was twin top tube oval forks and down tube and welds where not to good ,he thought it was a haro as it had decal on it but i put him right.will try for a pic if i can get hold of him again.
