I had one of those in Blue, raced it for a few years. They came as an F&F, so any spec is fine. :daumenhoch:

For the record I had Robinson bars, HL Turbo cranks, DX pedals, Araya tear drop rims with Suzi hubs, Comp 3s, dia compe break and Zeronine pads, GT seat post with Skyway hot seat. Obviously the set up changed, but thiose bits stick iin my mind.

BTW they ride like bambi on ice, the forks with drop outs under the legs are a terrible idea. I loved it at the time though. :idiot2:

Gotta be an Alans tribute parts list surely - Arayas, Suzue hubs, Robinson bars, Suntour stem, MX1000 and Tech 3, Kashimax MX, Flites or three piece alloy cranks, Mirage plate.

Then I'll be happy to take it off your hands!

It's not a Pro it's an Expert. Pros and XL's have the plate welded to the seatube saying it's been handbuilt in the US. Still a great bike though and even rarer because it's not a pro
