Thinking about powdering it Yellow now, as that was the factory team colour.

think they had the rear end still left as chrome - check that over on VBMX though
then you'll need to get a Galen team decal

Here's some pics of my recent score!

Bars look like powerlites (I think they had the power bend didn't they?) Only prob is that they have been cut down way to far! Stem is a good length - Tioga, but lowers the bars - meaning I'll need a taller pair - anyone got some half decent bars for sale?

Fantastic wheels!

Everything else is excellent too!

Best 150 quid I ever sent - the cranks are worth well more than that on their own!

Below are the DX's I got with it. To be honest i recon I'll stick with the beartraps - so if anyone wants them the best offer over 50 quid gets them!

Very good score.....

I've been chatting with Dale Holmes about the bike, and he said that most of the factory team ran with light blue framesets.

Look similar to below:

I'll be getting it powdered very soon - anyone know the colour number to make it easier to get it right?

Yeh I posted here cos I wasn't sure how "old school" the Free Agents were.

It's old school enough for me!

So where's your baby blue Free Agent then?

Rooonga · « **Reply #36 on:** June 01, 2007, 05:19 PM »

I have!

It looks so good too.

Thanks for asking.

Oh I suppose you wanna see her?

Just needs the decals which will be ordered next wednesday. (The next time I'll have any money.)

I'd like to say a big Thankya to bananaman, and Moza for the bits that finished her off, but a BIG Thankyou to SuperBikeDan for the excellent work he has done!

Getting the Old script red decals with black outline. (They changed in 1989 so just right for my bike)

I rode it at Daggers yesterday after dropping my daughter off to her mums for about an hour and really loved it! I mean REALLY loved it, nice n long and rode like a dream compared to my other old school rides I have had.

All I can say is anyone looking for an old school bike that feels a bit more stable - go for a Free Agent! (Bet the cruiser must feel fantastic to ride!)

kdw712 · « **Reply #39 on:** June 01, 2007, 05:51 PM »
