I don't think you'll be able to find those rounded bottom profile bars, but the flat bottomed ones come up for sale every now and then (check the test I emailed you). The stem will also be hard to find.

i was going to say about the stem as it will need a spinner and race version wont cut it for length .
i looked at the bars and for now will use hutch ladders till someone spots a set   :daumenhoch:
cheers moose the font of knowledge.

I not sure if one of those stems ever surfaced. I know James (twintoptuber) was looking for one ages ago, but if he found one or not, I don't know :daumenhoch:

I have just found one of those profile stems in silver,  but it does not have a hollow bolt. I think it must be a racing version but im not dead sure im afraid. It has the profile emblem imprinted on the top of it.

Yeah greentoad, mine is just like that, i really need to check the bike to be dead sure its EXACTLY the same. I guess it's a racing one, right? Im 99% sure its exactly like that.

Cool, you're thinking of buildig up a Prostyler.  Nice!

Here's a pic of mine decked in full Profile:



The race version of the lockjaw stem is the same as the freestyle, but with a Potts bolt.  I think I dropped a Tuf Neck bolt in mine as it lined up nicely on the quill, but don't hold me to it.  I'll try and pull mine out to take a look if you like.  The bars are difficult to find and I know where you can find a NOS set.  Just PM and I'll give you the lead.  Don't try and get greedy as the owner will only sell one set and if you ask for more/others, he won't sell you anything.  Good luck building it up.

I'm still trying to finish mine, but hopefully some time soon.  Still can't figure out the grips/wheel combo just yet  :idiot2:

I wonder if this unidentified Hutch is still in circulation ... possibly a prototype of some kind  :D
