From bmxmuseum, as well as the suntour stamp a few more ID tips:



Quote from: MUNCH
Quote from: caleb_k21
fake..   see the indents on the sides, there is suppose to be one on the bottom also..   and a real forklifter does not have a cable hole for a roter.  also the quill is very short on a real one..  you can not run a rotor period..
