My youngest son has been riding this Junior Cruiser which I bought a few years ago. If I'm to believe the stickers it's an aluminiun Ruption fitted with 170mm Sugino Maxy Cross cranks. It has 1.1/8th threaded forks with a 1" insert with an ART stem. Anyone know how old this bike might be?? Were they any good?? Humps

Its an early 2000 ish frame,
If you look at the rear drops there is a T stamped in there, Its actually a Trek cruiser,Rob from Ruption bought in a load of the frames thinking they were 20" but found out they werent :LolLolLolLol:
Cyclesport at Grantham had a few too.
Good frames,loads of people had them and did well on them
:) DINGO :)

no i have never dated that junior cruiser.

ps, those tyres appear to be 24 by 1.3/8 primo's
-beware, as those rims are actuall 550mm
-whereas a 24 by 1.75 rim, is actually 530mm
-so a 24 by 1.75 wont fit that rim!!!!!!
bring out the etro!
and yes i have just measured a spopke and
-your are 10 inches-255mm
whereas the 1.75 are 230mmish
:D
same as how a 20 by 1.38/18 is 451mm and a 20 by 1.75 is 406
-you think thems the same - but thems ain't!

You guys certainly are amazing with supplying info. Yes the tyres are indeed 1.3/8th on Sun Mistral rims and guess what, no spares but we'll cross that problem if one shreds. Can't see the "T" but now it's been mentioned I believe someone once mentioned the Trek connection. Thanks guys. Humps
PS: No-ones spotted the devil-pedals on it yet - where's Flemdog when you need him!! :LolLolLolLol:
