Dia-Compe AD 990 - Early Japan Stamped
Unbranded Lever

Izumi Chain - Dated 3C, 83 93 2003 who knows, I'll look into that
Unbranded Bars with Hoffman Grips - Not checked the bars for markings yet

Some older parts than I first thought on this bike.

Yeah it was very common to find old school parts on mid school bikes. People were giving it away. "Are you that guy who still rides a BMX? I got a couple in my garden you can have".

LOL in 1999 I bought a NOS Street Beat in white with the fork for 35 quid. Then gave it away to my mate's kid. Used to be a bike shop in New Malden. I would pass it on the bus when going to the bike shop in Raynes Park. When I went down to pre order my 97 Quad frame on the bus I saw it in the window, so I phoned when I got home and picked it up on the same day as the Quad. "Wow" he said "I never thought I would get rid of that"
