Rickman Freestyler (Extra Bar)
« on: October 30, 2014, 04:33 PM »
Something a (little) different from Rickman:

Their 85/6 Freestyler with the Extra Bar which was added to the frame to stiffen them out a little from the original model. They are quite long frames which makes them such solid riders now we're all a little older taller & (eh-hem) heavier than we were back in the day...

Not too many of these around, i only know of 1 other that has the extra bar & without the welded frame & fork standers (although there's bound to be more out there).  Anyway now she's done I hope you like.

Thanks Chaps,

Applying those main tube decals was a bit of a Bugger though due to the bar !

Yeah i guess there doesn't seem to as many of these about , like the older ones they did them with or without the fork standers welded on, until recently this was the only one that had surfaced without the standers but with the extra bar. but in the last couple of months I have seen a picture of another one with the same spec.

It was a pleasure & an un expected build this one as i purchased it on ebay for a mate . He then decided that he couldn't afford to build it up so i had it back off him... Really glad i did now.
