Have I found a Gen 1 ?
greentoad:
Hi
I logged in earlier and saw this and it's now on the list - that's two this week!
Nice Find - (One more and that's 50 Survivors).
It's the 16th Oldest known to exist and also has some very nice bits.
Looks like original forks, no cracks at the gusset, brake bridge is not squashed and Vector Bars, Sharp BB, Black MX1000's, Skyway Pro Pads.
Have you scene it in the flesh? Any other nice bits with it (wheels etc)? What is the post, seat, clamp, crank etc?
Can you find out any history - where it was bought, original owner, did it do any freestyle comps etc - any help is appreciated.
Thanks
J.

Yep, I took the pics myself when he brought it into work on Monday, I haven't seen the wheels but they sound like old white skyways to me.
Seatpost has a HARO sticker on it but don't know what it is. Crank is a Sugino 1pc as far as I can remember, the seatclamp is the Dia-Compe hinged kind.
I was told it was bought for 400 quid from a shop somewhere near Barkingside, Essex, the current owner is the second owner. Thats all I know.
If he hasn't taken it home when I get into the yard tomorrow I'll take more detailed pics and post them.
