Post by: nosepickben on January 30, 2013, 09:52 PM: I like the brake arms 8) not sure about the hanger tho :(
I'd just worked out it was a bontrager stem by the time I got down to the rims and saw the same logo. Not sure on the pedals, they look good & gnarly.. >:D

Post by: Discostu on January 30, 2013, 10:02 PM: Bontranger is a subsidery of trek. So I would imagine the stuff originally came from a trek BMX. :daumenhoch:

Stems gonna be removed lol don't really like it,will be after a longer one
Title: Re: Any ideas?
Post by: nosepickben on January 30, 2013, 10:52 PM: Bloody hell..!! That stem is tall. And ugly! Just needs a pukka bar/stem set up and that will be a beauty. Very surprised to see a torker. Looks nice in the yellow too.
Good bike that, I'd like a go on it. :daumenhoch:

Title: Re: Any ideas?
Post by: Philbert on February 02, 2013, 04:00 PM: Just some advice before getting juicy about the brake being 'Paul'. I'm not saying it isn't a Paul but I'm not saying it is. The majority of Paul stuff was engraved somewhere with Paul on it. And there is a wealth of Paul copy stuff around in the 90's due to them being the brake of choice before v brakes on an mtb. Might be worth sticking a pic on retro ride to see if the mtb lot can identify it
Title: Re: Any ideas?
Post by: neil on February 02, 2013, 06:08 PM: Tbh im not too bothered who its made by as long as it stops the bike cool but ill put it on retro see what they say
