pro neck vs proneck 11

[neil]

any idea what the difference is apart from 11 on the top of the stem?
how come silver pro necks are soooo hard to find

[brettypeeps]

There has just been a spate of them on here and eBay including a couple of NOS ones. Just bad timing for you but be patient and keep your eyes peeled

Buy a coloured one and remove the paint or anno - saves waiting around and should save you some $$$.  Find a rough one as there's no point messing up a nice one then get cracking.  SteveP had an excellent thread showing how to achieve the correct brushed finish.  (You can polish it to a BLING finish if you want but this is frowned upon by the BMX    )

Aye 

and Pro necks always tend to be fair dearer than Tuf necks too 


around £150  people ask/get  for a nice coloured one


As for the difference in Pro neck and Pro neck II 

Is it the length ?

Shape is the same from pics I've seen 

[antiquebmx]

pro neck II have a thinner stem bolt,   - a bit lighter? Ive  not checked??

As far as I could find out a while back Pro neck (1981) is an earlier version than Pro neck II (1984ish), the shafts and wedge are different and not interchangeable.
