as double chevron says,mines a late 80,s and it doesn't have the brake cable routers
or the brake mounting hole behind the b.b.

i'm far from an expert but from old magazine pictures i'm sure/ish that the cable routers
didn't come out on the flovals till a few years after they did on the rippers.

Yes 1" head tube. I bought it from the States a few yrs back with the intension of building a nice OldSkool bike. Got most of the period parts but not got the time so gonna sell.

Cheers and thanks for link.

its a 90's one.the brake bridge is too near the seat tube for an earlier one
and it looks like the seat tube by the bb is drilled out for a pitbull type brake.

SE didn't put the Pitbull hole behind the BB till late 91 / early 92 so if it follows the same pattern (as that part would be common on the two frames) I would say 92. Done quite a bit of research on this as I have a Ripper XL with serial PK0008 and wanted to know when it was from. The best I came up with was the earliest a XL frame was offered for sale (XL frames were only offered with the Pitbull mount) in a BMX Plus mag price list was around April 92.

Frame only needing some paint? I'd say £150.
