Hello does anyone know if there should be a frame number on a profile cruiser as I have aquired this as a complete bike with some good parts and some bad. I know its a profile as I was there when a mate bought it in the 80s from the shop I worked in but it has no frame number was this comon on profiles in about 83/84 It also has tange forks on it which are still like new.
And it came with gt sealed hubs in white with the chrome stickers still on them,

Cheers Matt I will check that know.
Plans are to build it up using bits I have lying round and buying nos parts that I need.
The hubs, stem, bars,comp threes and one rim are good and I have a set of 400 flights that where put to one side a while back.
Been in and out of restoring them over the last 9 years but made the mistake of selling everything I built.
To pay for lambretta rebuilds ect.
Too many hobbies not enough money.
Got this cheap so will try to keep it once built.
Its also a bike that was always down the local track so has a bit of history.
