Title: Torker 280 V Torker Freestylist
Post by: Gnasher on July 20, 2010, 09:08 PM

Who can put me straight on the diffrence between the Torker 280 and the Torker freestylist please. They are very similar right? The only obvious diffrence I can see is the joining bar at the bottom tube to the headtube? Is the geometry similar otherwise and is the Freestylist as sought after as the 280? Cheers

I think the Freestylist and 280 were quite different as in geometry,In my opinion the 280 would be a much more sought after bike,the freestylist wasnt the best looking thing Ive ever seen  :LolLolLolLol:

tt length on a freestylist is 20.5", 18.5" on my 280x, the frestylist is alright for riding, the 280x is good for looking at :daumenhoch:
