well, i got a freestyler frame.... THX to Greame, who helped me out with getting it straightened out (seat post tube replaced), swell

but what about the rest:
what parts belong on a dp freebird? i know of dp forks, but are there any other components that a full-blooded birdy should have?

Every DP freestyler i have ever known has one of these close to it

Thats a lovley firebird freestyler i havent seen one of those from the eighties mind you they were all over our estate back then, probably cause the local cycle shop stocked them, are these worth a lot now ?

fischflo · « **Reply #23 on:** October 31, 2005, 08:23 PM »

well, the two I found were affordable - the one on the pix came for around 50 - but its post was split, the chrome a bit dull. I think I remember having seen one or the other birdy on this or the old forum, so I guess you'll find them. But the bars are like Gold Dust.
