Hubs sorted thanks to Roberto

Chrome 2pc bars (Slams?)
Seat n post
Tyres - vmonster?

If you're after Primo super tenderizer pedals, they've just released them again & they look exactly like they used to!

When were they released Shane?

Found this pic but no idea on year

The original meat tenderizers came out in '96 & the super tenderizers were '97/'98 iirc. People ran them well into the 00's 👍 The ones in your picture are early versions of the supers.

Here's a pic of the hubs, Rob's also found some spokes and nipples

Freewheel posted yesterday mate - it will fit those fine but don't forget to put plenty of grease on the threads before you spin it on

Picked up the frame last night, along with a few other bits from Ed (silver NOS Rhynolite rims, DC brake, DK clamp, ODI longneck grips, fsa headset, and an Odysy ratchet lever which I may try and strip) Ed also managed to find a set of V monsters

Thanks to Chris (trails97) for the top cap star nut thingy - can attach the forks now!

Now I just need to sort a saddle and those bloody bars

Bars sorted thanks to Mr Taipan, cheers Carl

They the decals for it ?

griff · « **Reply #60 on:** June 05, 2017, 04:58 AM »

The 26hz was a trials frame, but the web addy was an optional decal
The TV logo went on all of them too

Found this thread over on retro bike

Picked these up tonight (thanks Rob)
Plan is to build them up & finish the bike off at MK

griff · « **Reply #62 on:** August 22, 2017, 03:32 PM »

After a massive group effort this was finished in time for the lake ride
Wheels built and trued up on Friday
Rear axle slotted down to 10mm on Saturday

Thanks to everyone who helped me out with this, came out great IMO and rides really nice

Thanks Dave

Since half of the bits came from you, you're bound to be biased

Cheers Rob - they did

Ben (who trued them up) was particularly impressed with my handiwork lacing up the front - rather than follow conventions like a sheep I boldly decided to make one of the spokes go under or over when it 'should' have gone over or under

Still it was nice to have a go and helped by Beefy Keith and son and Rich Clean all helping, Friday afternoon saw plenty of rimming, flanges and nipple action

Looked a cracking build once it was all buttoned up

Particularly liked the new "snake spoke" invention

Thanks dear but will pass

After putting so much collective love into building these ones they are staying

Also to keep the lovely sprocket means the rear hub needs to be a flip flop innit
