Title: Torker pro
Post by: ugy76 on October 31, 2011, 09:52 PM

Hi just need some info on a Torker Pro x ive managed to get hold of what seams to be a genuine bike minus the rear wheel, the bottom bracket and the headtube are machined and the gusset is under the down tube like the Haro frames, the problem is the SN starts with numbers and not letters and according to the bmx museum web site they should start with a letter? but it ends with a "P" Any help would be great :)

does it look like this one?

If so it's a 280x which seems to fit in somewhere between where Torker was sold off and when Torker 2 came to the fore. 85-6ish

well for a start i wish ;D mine is blue and the gusset is smaller at the front, i think it may have been painted over white at some point

This ProX is from our museum, have a look there in the Torker section.

I'm not sure about the serial number thing though but it it's the same as this it's probably a Torker. Have you any pics you could post?
