1995 Ramp Room Hoffman Condor (pic heavy)

[Gra_goose]

I recently picked up this Ramp Room built '95 Condor off the bay for a great price.

It had been left sat outside for years and although still having og paint and decals was looking in a sorry state

Some eBay shots









A few pictures I took when I got it home
It had been sat in a garden for a good part of its life and was looking pretty sorry for itself.

















It had the good old acid bath treatment






And a sympathetic resto. Tried to keep as much as original as possible with a few subtle upgrades. Swapped out the GT PFT wheels for Superpro's and added GT stamped profile cranks, with Xposure grindisc, primo tenderisers and black wall v monsters.

Hope I did it some justice?








Already rides so much better then my early models and looking to use this one as a rider, not display piece.

It's certainly an unusual colour for one.
It's one of only two silver ones I actually know of in existence and the only one I've ever seen including old magazine and photo shoots with red decals in silver / grey paint.

Lovely bit of resto that ... a repaint would have killed it.

Personally I'd fancy looking for a survivor set of pedals and grind disk to match the frame

Hi very nice I like that excellent job

The pedals are actually pretty bashed up already, they're just too clean I think.
 I know what you mean re the bash guard, but maybe I'll have more fun trashing this one!

Looks ACE that 

[rodriguez]

nailed it

Be good to ride it, you don't want to just stand around talking about it or checking your dated cables Graham

[griff]

Are the cables dated? And stretched?

That's very important

You wouldn't want to have slack cables from the wrong year on it, what on earth would the neighbours say?

[pickle]

Very true Griff, very true

[griff]

Also very important to ensure that the tyres have just the right amount of wear on them
