Be good to see what's out there :coolsmiley:
Haven't built one before so I'm after some inspiration for my Parkpre.
Struggling with Spider / Ring / Chainwheel options tbh ???

Cheers :daumenhoch:

Depending on your cranks, A nice ripsaw, there's a 42t in this thread (18t rear sprocket needed)

Thanks for the link Si :daumenhoch:
The frame is early 90's but it's been hard to get an exact date for it.
I've got a Fusion OPC so maybe a Fusion ring / spider? ???

Grips have gone and it's now got a Fusion post,
Sorry about the crap pic:

I found this 94 Catalogue page.
I think mine must be an early model as there's no brake lugs on it.

There's a couple in the museum: http://bmxmuseum.com/bikes/park_pre/
