1986 ZERONINE PRO XL FINISHED. ** PICTURE HEAVY**

[NORTY40]

I'll start on the Profile Champ Pro when i can be sort of bothered....... No rush like Joff said although i do have 95% of the parts, i think the only thing i'm missing is a set of early 80's black grips. ( Oakley ?)

Oh in that case then seeing as you have 95% of the parts i'll reduce my original completed build estimation from 2 to 3 years down to 1 year  

If it turns out half as nice as this one it will be another one to be proud of mate

Last pic Andy, me and Darren Wood messing about at Slough. Weird to think I have kept that racegear for over 25 years.....

The stickers are an exact copy of the original ones that were on the bike Clive. As you know it was Andy Pope's old one that i bought off him.

Serial number is T6100532. Andy told me it was his from 1986. There are holes though like you say and it is gussetless.


I got a lot of my info from the French guys. Also Frogbmx did the stickers and he confirmed everything.

And a pic of my actual bike from 86 with CW bars. I hope you don't mind me adding my pics to your topic!



And I still have all my factory rider kit too.....

Don't mind at all Clive, i know you're all things Zeronine  and to be honest i loved all your gear back in the day hence why when one came available i didn't hesitate in building one. Your stuff was my inspiration to be honest.

Hope you like it anyhow

stunning build mate,been struggling to finish any builds for about 6 - 8 months but this gives me the inspiration to put mtb down and finish what i started

Love that bike its a really different and clean build

Is it tempting to put on all the race gear and blast it round the track like its 86 ?

  Totally awesome Andy

stunning truly stunning

Yep, a Taiwanese one like mine Andy (but mine is masquarading as a US built '86)!

I was lucky to have the first ever Zeronine in the UK, that was a black pro, USA Cyclecraft made with matching pants/shirt/bag which I got from Hot Wheels Graham Merry at a trade show in November 85. Technically yours could be a 1986 Andy as these later Taiwanese ones (with the 'confetti' graphics came out end of 86 as an 87 Model.
This is me racing the USA made black pro at Bercy '86:



Then we got the '87 bike and blue race gear, this is me on it at the World Chamos in Orlando '87. Notice the lack of gusset on this early one.



After that I raced for Revcore but two happy years with Zeronine, so much so that I had them as a sponsor when I raced for Revcore, I still have two custom made one off Zeronine Revcore race pants under the bed!
