Post by: JJR on August 29, 2006, 06:29 PM: I had this frame set for ages just waiting to get build.
Orginally it was a gold Team Jag but removed the damaged gold paint and under that was this nice crome (or nickel?).
Part list:
1979 Team Jag frame (full cromoly)and fork
Araya 7C rims (satin black powdered)
Suzue sealed hubs
LHR big knobby tires
Mongoose headset
Look alike Nitto stem (with a big E in the top part)
Fluted alloy handlebar
Kobe grips
Shimano DX lever
Shimano brake
Campagnolo Strade 175 crank
SR spindle and BB
Sugino chainwheel
Shimano freewheel
cheap chain
MC rad traps
MX seat
some seatpost clamp and seatpost
I'm working on the decals......

I found 2 pairs in a American Stock........
But used them myself and i'm very happy i found them!
They still sell simular tires with black wall from Cheng Ching (or something like that name).
