ANOTHER PK RIPPER FINISHED ... well, almost, lol :)
« on: April 03, 2010, 07:02 PM »
I've had this F+F for some time but somehow it always got pushed to the end of the queue  ???

It was heavily powder coated when I got it. This took forever to strip by hand and thankfully it was tip-top when I finally saw bare metal ... loads of parts have been lovingly brought back to life and the only thing left to fit is the gold Pro Neck stem when it finally arrives. Oh, and the hubs will be changed to early low flange Suntour with rear cassette when they arrive too  ;D

Anyway, here's a few photos for now ... hope you like  :coolsmiley:





















SPEC LIST

SE Racing Looptail Ripper with Unstamped Landing Gear (restored)
SE Racing camo pad set
SE Racing Powerwing bars
Oury grips
Pro Neck II stem (restored)
Tioga MX-2 headset
Dia Compe 1020 brake set (restored) with pre-bent lever and DC cable
Cycle Pro Shot Gun seat
SE Racing 13/16" seat post
Tuf Neck seat clamp
Sugino Super Maxy 170mm crankset (restored)
Sugino 43T chainring
Sugino chainring bolts
Shimano DX pedals
Araya 7X rims on Sunshine hubs with Asahi spokes and Suntour 16T freeheel (restored)
Mitsuboshi Grippa tyres

Massive thanks to poolysheriff for the Sugino chainring ... much appreciated Gaz  :4_17_5:

Cheers

Steve

as the above have said, the black & gold colour scheme is another famous favorite from SE Racing :4_17_5: another touch which i feel is nice Steve is the change of parts used, its a huge difference from the MX1000's, Kashi Aero's, Comp III's and Flight cranks that are used through out alot of builds, pukka build ;)  :4_17_5:
