Title: i keep buying condors......
Post by: condor96 on September 13, 2008, 09:28 AM: i bought another early 97 condor a week or two ago and built it up today so now i have 5.... :D
oh an fyi another thing i learned that i didnt check before is the difference between the rear end. i knew the seat stays and chain stays were kinked in different
spots between 96s and 97s but i never checked the rear end length. i took my whole drive off my orange 96 and put it on this 97 and the back wheel was at the
end of the dropout. i had to take 2 links out of the chain to get it in the same spot on it. put a later condor seat on it,peregrine silver bars etc etc......pics

That's a mid-93 ramp-room model with the beefed up drop-outs, peg mounts and the tighter headangle.

It can wear those stickers, just...however most of that type had the slightly later stickers.

BTW - you need to be a site supporter to sell on RADBMX. Please forward £10 from the proceeds of the sale and I'll put you a tag on.

Thanks

Here you can see the differences between the 92 & 93:

Headtube angle (92 at back) & Fork Bosses (93 forks are late versions, there was a fork in the middle with bosses halfway between these two - like your ones):

Rear drop-outs & peg bosses (92 at front):

Rear ends, note the difference in drop-out thickness (92 at bottom):

Weight-wise the 92 is about 1.25lbs lighter than the 93.
