1982/3 Mr. Stix Wedge completed!
« on: March 09, 2011, 11:38 PM »
I first fell in love with this bike when Rob V first had it at least 5 years ago or more.  Little did I know that this was a New Jersey made bike and that is what got my engine running!! I tried to keep tabs on it but Rob ended up selling it and I moved on and bought other F&F's that I liked. I believe I am the 4th owner of this F&F.
Rob V to Julio to Juan to me. Once I received it from Juan Mattos, the search was on!!! I have read and heard that they only made something like 50 of these in late 82/early83 and this is serial #10! Like every other bike in my collection, I only sourced NOS to MINT USED parts, leaving the restored and over blinged stuff for the kiddies!

NOS MX3 Headset
NOS BS Dirt Skirt
NOS Oakley B2 with red Oakley crud plugs
MINT 1st generation (VDC made) Power Lite Power bend bars
(check how square they are...I love them!)
NOS Haro Series One Plate with all OG decals
NOS Cali Lite padset
NOS MX-1000 with 83 dated cable and tech 3
NOS Skyway Pro Pads with cooling fins
NOS Race Inc Seat post (decal has a smudge but i like to show that it is REAL, not some re-decaled wanna-be post)
NOS Kashimax MX seat
MINT Suntour seat post clamp
NOS chrome Araya 7x hoops
MINT Son Lite Turbo II hubs in original anodized black finish
NOS Comp II front tire (2.125)
NOS Cycle Pro Snake Belly rear (1.75)
MINT 3rd generation Profile cranks with 130bcd Profile Spider
NOS Pro Neck 44 tooth sprocket















last picture is how much I LOVE THIS BIKE!!!
