Title: straight stay Ripper
Post by: HUTCHMAN on April 08, 2011, 10:02 PM

I,m trying to restore a straight stay Ripper that some one has polished the welds flat(like a Cannondale MTB).Has anyone got one that they could take some pics of the welds in various areas so i can try and re-engrave them with my Dremel.Help please.
