Title: 1982 BLAZER mini
Post by: AGUILAR3 on February 20, 2010, 07:37 PM

After sitting for 2 years , I decided to remove and sell off 70% of the bike (Wheels, tires, cranks, seat clamp, seat,grips,stem and handle bars) and replace them with a few NOS parts already in my possession.

(The Urchin cages are a bit newer (85/6),  but they will have to do until I find some OG Hutch cages or black rat traps. Campy cranks are also earlier)


Here is the outcome. LMK what you think  (positive or negative criticism welcome but be gentle)




NOS 82 BLAZER mini f/f

Tuf Neck mini stem

A'me mini grips

Stronglight Alloy headset

Shimano brake lever

Dia Compe 500 mini calipers with weinmann adjuster

DB alloy mini bars

Campagnolo 165mm Pista crank set

Sugino 45t chain ring

Hutch mini pedals w/ Ti axles and Urchin cages

Hutch mini donut seat clamp

UNI Hammerhead seat

SR loose ball hubs

ARAYA Hard ano sewup hoops

Panaracer Conquer sewup tires

Blk alloy nipples

SS spoke
Complete wheel set was laced up by GTs  BITD wheel builder Jose Barrera.
Straight lace front wheel, Straight lace non drive side / cross lace drive side rear

Suntour 16t freewheel

Smoker chain

alloy euro BB

it's not a typo, the gearing is 45t. That setup actually came off of a survivor micro JMC.

I also have 2 other survivors with high gearing. My 81 GT has A 49t  TA crank set up.  :wtf:
