Have you ever heard of an early 80s looptail ripper with serial number beginning MR followed by 5 numbers?

Could be a Mini Ripper . . . is the top tube shorter and the BB lower

Here's mine but the serial # is hard to read . . . officially launched in 1979-1980

Hi Danny

I did have it up for sale but I've thrown a lot more cash at it since taking the photo  ???

To be honest I'd be very sad to see it go

Cheers
