Title: early innovation from Custom Riders
Post by: skidmark on February 07, 2014, 09:41 PM
I just noticed this ad in an 89' issue of Freestyle mag   8)
Some parts that other companies brought out several years later as groundbreaking...

Seen all the other parts but I didn't know they made a gyro plate/headset lock  ???
Looks a little familiar...  ;D

Is this a CR freecoaster or just a sticker on a hub??

Post by: garran on April 08, 2014, 05:42 PM
the static ones had welded flanges, but it could be?
Title: Re: early innovation from Custom Riders
Post by: Dannywhac on April 08, 2014, 07:38 PM
Sticker on a hub I reckon - although could be that CR turned some coasters into freecoasters and stickered em up - the Static ones have 48 hole welded flanges. Reminds me - sorry Gary!
Title: Re: early innovation from Custom Riders
Post by: solow79 on April 08, 2014, 07:57 PM
Thw peregrines the coaster is on are on my bro's 91 master which I had a look at today as he dusted it off after a good few years tucked away. The complete bike was bought from Custom Riders and the wheels were built there  but I haven't a clue about their coasters so I wasn't sure if it was one of theirs or just slapped a sticker on one.

the suntour stamp may hold a clue  :D

The suntour stamp was noted but dannywhac posted a pic on page one  which also has the suntour stamp on it. As I said I'm clueless about this gear :D

i have a static one as well, 48 hole, welded flanges, blue static sticker covering the suntour logo. it's in bits though like the most  of my freecoasters. i have about ten freecoasters, so i'm sure i have enough parts to rebuild it.
