What part would you bring back?
« on: February 20, 2014, 07:44 AM »
I was chatting to a mate of mine last night who works in the the industry and he asked me an interesting question.

If you could make a small run of any part, what old school part would you bring back?

Now before you start listing frame sets and the like, it would need to be a part not a whole bike or frame set.  It would also need to dodge any copyright issue.


I thought of Skyway power discs as they're a bugger to get


what would you want to see come back as a very limited run?

Suggestions so far

Skyway power disc
DP Ladder bars
16t Bendix/suntour coaster cog
Action zone bars

16t bendix or suntour coaster cogs.... like rocking horse poop!!


No, really it'd need to be something simple (ish) like DP ladder bars or or pro neck stems, they would be easy enough and in demand.

Daz still has a look every now and then but last time i spoke to him he was busy with work and his motor sport hobby now. He's still got a load of bikes but nothing like he used to have as lots of them have been sold to a few folks on here as well as the rest of the web :daumenhoch:

I think he kept all the Action Zone bars mind :coolsmiley:
