nice pick up, ready to ride

It will never break, I don't think standard ever had breaking issues, especially with the sta.

That's a nice bike.

nice to find a complete like that, as said ready to ride.

nice to see a set of Metal bars,although they look like they've been cut down (ahem) slightly
I always fancied a pair of their bars in day glo pink

That's nice

gary67 · « **Reply #11 on:** July 10, 2012, 07:20 PM »

Cheers,yep bars have been cut down a wee bit,you can still steer it though ;)That chin beard chainring gotta go though,its for a cack footed rider ;DIts got a tank chain or something on it and needs a few links taking out to slam it,i can feel myself buying a new chain tool again soon if it destroys mine

gary67 · « **Reply #12 on:** July 10, 2012, 08:02 PM »

Looks like someone can't measure properly.One side of the bars is shorter than the other :2gunsfiring_v1:so they'll need sorting out.Also on the lookuot for a pair of black strip bars if anyone has any

nosepickben · « **Reply #13 on:** July 12, 2012, 09:59 PM »

Good find, shouldn't need much work to make that ride nicely. If anyone is after a mint STA frame, drop me a pm

gary67 · « **Reply #14 on:** July 12, 2012, 10:11 PM »

Been fiddling about with it today.Took a few links out the tank chain to slam back wheel,had to use a punch to hammer the pin out,pain in arse.De-stickered most of it,put a primo chain pull on,pegs on,chainwheel chin beard of(weighed 8oz)and gave it a good alround clean.

nothing wrong with left foot leading riding. Means were are special!
I bought A general lee with a nice set of volume bars on it but one side was shorter than the other. To cut them down evenly they would be 22inches

gary67 · « **Reply #16 on:** July 13, 2012, 12:01 PM »

Just measured mine and to cut them down even they would be a bar spinning 19 1/2 inches

gary67 · « **Reply #17 on:** July 20, 2012, 08:18 PM »

Cleaned off crappy stickers mostly,pegs on,brake tweaked,new decal from Del,chin beard off ,that lost it about 7oz lol,Primo chain tensioner on,spokes tightened good to go.Should have some S&M medium lt bars to put on it when they turn up

harris · « **Reply #18 on:** July 20, 2012, 08:20 PM »

solid gary

Doing what it was built for again

Found a nice piece of concrete to feeble grind

gary67 · « **Reply #21 on:** September 03, 2012, 08:54 PM »

Update on STA..New Standard strip bars and stem,Oddy twisted pedals,Salt pivotal post and UGP hot wheels pivotal seat,Salt plus lever and Tioga Street block tyres,front 2.25 back 2.15.And piston valve caps

.Was going to put a Profile chainwheel on but took cranks off then realised the spacer on the Mutiny chainwheel didnt fit the Profile and had no spare,so had to put the Mutiny back on

Weight now....32lb,may get some 36h wheels for it,we'll see...
