I picked this up last weekend. I got it off of craigslist here in the states.

1995 Standard Lengthy
Odi Grips
DC Tech 7 lever
Slambars? (not sure)
Hoffmann Superfork and stem (1 " threadless)
Tioga Beartrap headset
Vetta seat
VG seatguts
unknown post
unknown post clamp
GT chainwheel
Profile 175 cranks
GT pedals
Peregrine SuperPro wheels
GT tires

The pictures here are from right after I got it home. I haven't had time yet to get it cleaned up. The frame has a few scratches and chips in the paint but all of the parts are in great condition and will be even better once I get them cleaned up.

Thanks for the info Kev S! I honestly knew nothing about King and never even heard of it before this thread.

The guy who built this bike was in the U.S. Military in 1995 and bought the frame in Japan. He completely built it while he was there. The funny part about it is, He lives about 40 miles from Davenport! It was made in Davenport, shipped to Japan, then shipped back to a town 40 miles from where it was made!
