apart from a few bits that's not far off the original spec.  Rims should be Sun Mistral not Ukais, stem should be GT not DK, Pedals should be SR but that's nice.  Forks don't look correct though.

I'm torn now, do i get mine done black or chrome the bugger or stick to my original idea of white.....

Fantastic Ron, what year is that?  Looks like 1988?  I know the late 89 and 1990 bikes had a more leading axle fork and Sun rims as standard.  Looks like that guys bike is closer to original spec than i thought! I had a Pro Team bike in 1989.

It's 88, I think they changed to frame the following year, to the half loop shape.

I didn't look at the loop Ron, yes, 1989, half loop back, leading axle fork not centreline, sun rims etc etc.....if you check the Invert mag scan thread in the chat section there's a full test of the 1989/1990 bike.

Gogo, that is the mother of all step ups that you hit flat out off of a 50ft high wooden start hill, my local track, quicker to speed jump and manual but hard to do at that speed but as it was my local track i had it pretty dialled.

That bit of plastic under my frame pad was called a 'sponsor board' or something, it was like a plate for your frame! Yes, gay i know.....
