I wish  good luck to who did get it.

Not sure it's a Curtis that tbh... rear dropouts look more like PR Racing.

Either way still a tidy bike for the money.

I was on eBay half an hour before that!

that's why I STILL keep looking, great score!

They are still out there FOLKS!

Forks are CURTIS agree frame maybe PR, but stem, wheels, CW cruiser bars???

SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Uksupergoose]

Just had another look....

What a score....

DX's for a start, are they CW cranks??

I CANT LOOK

MY EYES

[Mikku]

I hope someone on here got it!

[Taipan]

I agree on the drop outs I didn't notice them? tbh ,so yes I agree more like PR dropouts  , I suspect one of the Rich boastful buggers on Rad Faceache probably got it  or they know who did  and they probably wont say owt unless your in their gang

I picked it up as was 5 mins down the road

Nice!

What are your plans? Part it out and flip it or restore and ride it?

I bet someone somewhere is crying out for those forks, if they are CURTIS, they certainly look like it....

Whatever you do, good luck, glad someone on here got it

If it's a PR Racing frame they are most probably PR Racing forks... the framesets were more or less identical apart from the rear dropouts.

Cool, thanks for the info. Custard, everyday is a school day (still...)

Did Curtis make them for PR Racing then?

(useless piece of info. Brian's son was in my class at Selwood Middle School, Frome 1985....)

[Taipan]

Having had a better look at those cranks I'm thinking that they might well be 'Proclass' cranks? deffo not CW as not dog bone looking in anyway,I think there 'Proclass' cranks
