V nice Dave - cranks make it spot on... shouldn't it have an MCS 6 bolt sten tho??? ;) Oh, and a lightning bolt plate...
Title: Re: seen it before??
Post by: ORB on December 06, 2005, 01:05 PM
i thought it was a Torker 6 Bolt?

Title: Re: seen it before??

i thought it was a Torker 6 Bolt?




I could never find anyone who knew for sure when I was researching it, and apparently Bob can't remember...


It shouldn't be a Suntour seatclamp though...and it should be a Shotgun I not a MX seat   ;)  At least, it should if you are going for the one used in Freestyle Moves, I know he changed it all the time.

Whilst I am picking holes, the levers should be blue base, yellow handle. Dave, if you want to, I'll swap my blue bases for your yellow? They're NOS. Yours will then be the right colour combo.

Oh, and the rear caliper should be a 890, not a 900/1000. I'll shut up now, as it looks great as it is. :-[

Post by: Rombloke on December 06, 2005, 06:10 PM
thank for the constructive critisism rob and jim...i think jim is right tho...mcs 6 bolt...you try finding one tho...same as the shotgun, but the plate...at the nec in 82 he ran a tech, and also a suntour seat clamp, although it was red....theres no way im putting a red component on that ride...lol
rob, yeah mate im cool with that deal fella, mine for yours, that would be awsome mate, but you will have to pm me your addy
and jay....yes please fellathem the ones i want....white and red.

i'm welling up...i love you guys
