Title: 1986 Kuwahara Bravo KT Freestyler
Post by: Darren KAP on September 13, 2011, 09:16 PM

This turned up yesterday from across the pond I did have plans to re powder it etc etc but to be honest I think it wants to beleft as it is. As it is in far better condition than I was expecting. A big thankyou goes to Londonhellboy (Terry) for finding it for me.
The only things that appear to be none factory are the tyres and the grips as the grips are original odi mushrooms. Everything is survior.
Spec as follows:
Kuwahara Freestyle bars
Kuwahara Freestlye stem
Kuwahara seats
Kuwahara seat post
Kuwahara seat post clamp
Kuwahara chain wheel
Peregrine master graphite composite wheels
Odyssey freestyle brakes/Skyway pads
ACS rotor
Dia Compe freestyle locking levers
