the frame number would give an exact location of manufacture but yes a lot of Kuwaharas were made by Tange, plus even the Kuwahara fabricated bikes were made from Tange supplied tubing ;)

i know what you're thinking about the Pro but look at the differences in the chainstays! we'd spot you a mile off :o LOL :)

Title: Re: laser lite finished
Post by: Frosty on November 02, 2005, 10:16 AM: David,

Very nice build, was the frame a nos one or good survivor?

Mine is almost there, I got the bars back from the chromers and will hopefully complete the build this weekend. Just trying desparately to get some IRC tyres for it - I know someone with them but am having trouble persuading them to sell them to me :(

Perhaps you can put some pictures of the other collection you have - the cars, you keep teasing with them being in the background shots of your bikes!!

Regards

Paul

ps send Jamie some pics for his website at jamie@dreamgate.ne.jp
