Do you mean these are your original bars from the 80's Steve  :shocked:   or off a Silverfox you have had recently  ???

They do look like Hsin lung cro mo bars that came on a few MT racing bikes , the silverfox being one.  Mine had v bars but was an 82/83 so quite early.

Actual bars Joff!!!  :shocked: :shocked:

I think my Silverfox must have been a tad later as mine had Victor pedals and it also didnt have the MT seat......??
I would've had mine around 85 - 86.

Right then on the trade front
I lost a 1983 haro freestyler Gen 1 with vector bars, now if you happen to have found the bars we can do a straight swap  :D

Ok on a serious note pay for the postage mate and you can have them back  8)
