Title: 1984 torker freestyist
Post by: nitrohopper on September 08, 2019, 05:03 PM

Here is an 84 torker freestylist built for a mate of mine,it was bought about 5 years ago in a rough state with this style decals on it I have spoken to martin Aparijo he say decals are fine ,the frame was painted white but had been pink at some stage so we decided to have it repainted back to white. We have used vector fs bars pro neck stem fs880 tech 3 lever gold araya 7x redline flights hutch fs pedals dominator seat rental seat post dc clamp, think uts worked quite well love it (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190908/b091ee460b0d8d4054ef147f35442c67.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190908/c6e9640e4032cb049660168683e096f4.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190908/ddafbd9d76c375fddf9916d182526929.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190908/17303a6d2e35ba4d89fc8f78c9ff17b6.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190908/a02cbe62e12bedd496429a9950cf9c4b.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190908/71bb06fd4b44cc3471f441e6631962c2.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190908/c9e1a7e7c6eb1035625ab8a1644f87c1.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190908/12eed504ccf42d1d3261b5d1695d06f0.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190908/b8206e0ff552aed4ab2c88b0f3ecf2d1.jpg)

A truly underrated bike. :daumenhoch:
The Freestylist is a lovely bike to ride, long top tube for it's age. I'm on my second, sadly without the original forks. :'(

Yes I had trouble with the length of my cables  needed them to be longer due to size of bars and length of top tube
