Title: Rampar Team finished.
Post by: Coastvl on April 07, 2011, 12:38 PM

This bike will be my newest rider. The frame is a Rampar Team and thanks to Waza and Brisben I now have one. Very rare frames and basically a Jag with a hole and cable guides. They were made by BMX Products Inc. Mine is a very early one too. '78 Model.
The forks are JC forks #004 and the bars were mine originally from bitd. My Dad extended them 1 inch either side back in 82. They are nickel unstamped Prolines. I found the Mongoose seat at the tip for $2 !!
Again Waza supplied the front Tuff via Mick (Volcano). Can't thank you guys enough.
Everyone knows the hassles I've had finding the Addicks bolts for the chainwheel. Well these are from a Toyota !!! LOL The nuts on the back came from Pete (Bear). Spot on mate. Thanks.
Tires are Cheng Shins again. The rear needed to be a 1.75 as the fatty doesn't fit under the brake bridge.
Coaster brakes Rule!  :yahoo_mini:

Thanks guys.
I took it on it's maiden voyage and apart from a loose handlebar it rode realy good. Feels like all my other geese actually. Funny that...
Gary is working a normal 9-5 job and I think he is racing. He may return one day.  :daumenhoch:
