from the crossbar they look like they could be "slam specials"

they were like a heavier gauge, street version,

i could be wrong though

give us a shout if you let them go ding's!!??

Apart from the real early ones, I struggle to know what slams are what. There were soooo many different shapes of them, as they got made is loads of different places at the start.
No help at all, sorry.

Thanks guys

They have a "specials" decal on there so Joe might be on to something?

Yeah, they're Slam Specials.

Super think tubing for the heavy duty era around 2000 when every little part was beefed up. They didn't make em for long.

The specials are circa 99-00. There may be a copyright date on the Ambulance sticker.

All I see in that photo is the Challenger and Holmes frames on the floor.

Yep! - here you go, you can see a bit more in these pics! - Enjoy

Holmes

Challenger

Seen enough yet you S&M lovers?

RyanPartridge · « **Reply #13 on:** January 01, 2008, 08:28 PM »

Question and thread hijack-

I'm guessing by the serial number on the Challenger that it's a Challenger Pro. Does anyone know what serial numbers a Challenger XL would have?

harris · « **Reply #14 on:** January 02, 2008, 09:06 AM »

not sure ryan mine is a 21"tt and a fairly earlyish model 1"challenger
serial SCL 1211

RyanPartridge · « **Reply #15 on:** January 02, 2008, 04:37 PM »

That must be it.

SCP = S&M Challenger Pro

SCL = S&M Challenger Long

Okay, now...anyone want to sell or trade theirs?

SaMAlex · « **Reply #16 on:** January 02, 2008, 08:34 PM »

I guess Im too late to answer the question, but I have got a 1" challenger and an Oversized challenger, both nice and long, both "SCL----"

RyanPartridge · « **Reply #17 on:** January 03, 2008, 04:16 AM »

That's what I want Alex...

A Challenger XL, 1" threaded, no brake mounts, with gear chart sticker in red or chrome, with forks...

Miko · « **Reply #18 on:** January 03, 2008, 07:44 AM »

I'll take one too...

Wow. We have a problem.

SaMAlex · « **Reply #19 on:** January 03, 2008, 08:43 PM »

I wanted a 1" with canti mounts. I like that the wish bone makes more sence with canti mounts, and canti mounts are so RACE. I guess I will have to make do with my 990 mounted one. I just gotta get the decals sorted!
