Title: Torker Squareback or not
Post by: FuNMoNsTeR on February 27, 2007, 08:31 PM

I have this stem... It looks like a Torker Squareback but i am not sure. What do you all think?  ??? It looks to have been black Annodised.. most of it has been removed. It is unstamped but some Torker stems were not stamped.

Not sure on the bolts , torker six bolts may have been blackened, and the step seems odd

ask bob , he has one on his torker

there where a couple at least of slightly different torker stems, all six bolts, baldbmxer had a few for sale on here with pics, might be worth a search in the for sale section for comparison of pm him a link to your pics.

I saw Baldbmxers stem...that was an 84 Ultra 6 stem... They came stock on the Pro X and were curved at the back and underneath. Some were stamped and some had a decal either on the top cap or on the back of the stem bolt area. I haven't seen a squareback since 1983 so my memory is hazy at best  ;D
