I have seen many US 280Xs just badged 'Torker' on the downtube. The guys are right 18 for 280 19 for 280X and 20 for the Pro X.
 I have a Yellow Torker 280 frame and Forks coming and some NOS 24 Karat Gold plated Torker 180 mm cranks. Should i go Yellow and Black? Yellow and White? Or Yellow and Gold colourway?
