Post by: OrgasmDonor on July 02, 2007, 03:56 PM: i found the front end a little heavy, great race bike n solid in the air but difficult to get lots of air on, then again it's a different world to an old school bike

'97 Pro model, 1 1/8th headset, V brakes.

Agree that the front is heavy but they are rock solid stable.

It does feel heavy even without wheels, but that's probably a good thing on an OS/MS bike as it should be able to take a bit of hammer.

Why thank you, it will be getting raced this Sunday at Hersden. I don't know the geometry I'm afraid. Only thing that needs changing is the front tyre as it's only a 40psi jobby.

Post by: OrgasmDonor on July 12, 2007, 04:57 PM: they came off the same jig as the ripper of the time, but these where built with landing gear tubing and a more quadesque back end, they are bomb proof and possiibly the most underated frame n forks ever, beauty, strength, pedigree, what more could you want? it was a crime that generallee had to let his go so cheap, everyone but the person who bought it missed out big time, these are fantastic
