Post by: EL CID on February 26, 2011, 12:49 AM: No forks,that was the first thing after he handed it to me I asked. Its really lite for a freestyle frame. I do not plan on restoring it or using it. He came over wanting parts or a longer frame so we struck a deal and he left happy and I was left puzzled just knowing its a vector.

nah this gen didnt have the london bridge rep stander out front from what I can gather. Someone posted up to my post on VBMX and sais several were on the museums site and one like this has pegs/posts up near the crown of the fork.
Hows things going in Mr.Acids world? What builds do you have in the fire or finished?

yeah it could possibly be a mission and one I'm not going on lol Willing to trade it off and let someone do it up. I live less than 20 minutes from where it was built and this is the 2nd vector I have seen in 10 years.
