Anyone know what those little red brake cable things are that cover the semi adjusters on that Hutch ????????????
I'd love a black set for my next build but i've never seen them come up for sale.

Bar pics and dims in the ad point to Expert size , good price on those but Pro size are the more desirable ones ;) .

i was reading an old mag article on bars from bitd and star bars were featured,they say star bars have a 27 inch sweep???'seems small to me,guess it depends how you measure them.on a thread over on bmx museum someone says star bars measure 27 3/4".we shall see :D

I've got the dims at home but Expert were approx 27x7 , Pro 28x8 . The rise in the pic looks like 7" , pics could be deceiving though ( I've had Experts before & have 2x Pro now ) .

cheers for that matt,do you reckon that they are ghp bars then and not star bars?i always thought that star bars were one size only?

Hi Mark ,
tbh as you know I'm sure there was no exact science bitd , things were quite often all over the place with parts overlapping etc . My Expert size were decalled as Star bars & looked the OG decal due to the rust/corrosion etc around it and that it was heavily faded , I sold those to DB250F but have pics at home of them on my Vector etc . The 85 GHP ad below states both models but no dims , I think I've got an earlier ad with dims on my PC at home ;) .

that would be a turn up for the books,i can put them on my mrd then :smitten:
-
Theyre not MRD bars, the brazing was alot wider and would be alot more visible in the 2nd piccy

That's a shame then :'(
I've only seen one set in the last year or so and they were in Sawzalls garage alongside some Star bars, i must admit i didn't see any difference in the welds as i was looking at how identical in size and sweep they were.
-
when i get them i will fire up some pics with the dims too,hopefully the chromers might have finished stripping my other set by then so we can compare
-
That Judge is :smitten:
It's nice seeing bikes still being found in that condition.
Imagine having that thing BITD ::)
