Title: Primo Powerbite's, Can they be dated?
Post by: Gary72 on March 23, 2012, 10:22 PM: I have 3 sets all with different pedal mountings.
1 set has no pedal insert, 1 has a 1 piece pedal insert and the last set has a 2 piece pedal insert?
I think I've listed them in age order, but anyone know what years each set was released?

Anyone have any ideas on how to date Powerbites?

Post by: john4130 on October 09, 2014, 11:47 PM: what size axle does the set with no pedal inserts have and do they all have different threaded hardware.

Post by: Dodge-13 on October 10, 2014, 12:12 AM: I think I remember the first steel inserted ones coming out around 1999/2000

Believe all axles are 22mm. Did they do another size?
Do you mean the axle bolts or the pinch bolts?

So this version would be ideal for a 2001 bike?

Post by: john4130 on October 12, 2014, 10:36 AM: i'm not positive but i think the first one's came out around 93 and they had a 20mm axle. i'll check some old mags to see if i can find anything.
