Title: Trail boss
Post by: fouronethreeoh! on October 06, 2009, 09:51 AM: This turned up in a box yesterday. Just had to have it really, going by the stickers i'd say its 99/2000 era, could be a bit off though.
It definately got ridden by its former owner, but has been parked up for a while. The pics are basically how its come out of the box, pumped the tires up and went for a spin.
Fairly loaded with bits, odyssey elementary stem and evo brake. Profile cranks and rear hub. Pitchforks, primo tires and pedals and FBM sprocket.
:)

Post by: SaMAlex on October 06, 2009, 01:03 PM: Nice. The way that bike is built takes me right back to PlayStation (under the westway) on Tues nights (bike night) in the early 90s. For a while, everyone had those FBM chainrings, they were well cool.

Yeah they have been ground out, not a bad job, just need a little tidying.
