Pk Ripper with modded Standing Gear forks.

(1/2) > >>

SteveG:
I have finally got round to putting my bike back together. Its been in my loft for ages and after finding this site I decided to get some Landing Gear forks for it as I always wanted them when I first got it. I ended up getting hold of some very rusty Standing Gear forks and cutting the footstands off. They haven't come out too bad but because they are black its a job to see in the pictures.

The bike is pretty much as it was back in 84-85 when I stopped riding it. The only changes are the forks, pedals (I will put the DX's back on when I sort them out) and tyres.

I have a set of stickers for it but I'm not sure about putting them on as I didn't have any on it before.

The only things I want to do to it now are sort out the front brake and maybee get some older tyres. I did a Potts mod on the front brake so will either redo this or refit the quick release.

SteveG:
Thanks for the comments.  Do you have any idea of the manufacturing date from the frame number ? I would be interested to know as it was in the shop for a while.
Its a bit of an eye opener when you think it's about 25 years old, even more surprising I can still just about ride it and do a few tricks !

Looks good Steve, some skinwall tyres and you're away  :daumenhoch:
