Apart from the real early ones, I struggle to know what slams are what. There were soooo many different shapes of them, as they got made is loads of different places at the start.
No help at all, sorry.

Yeah, they're Slam Specials.

Super think tubing for the heavy duty era around 2000 when every little part was beefed up. They didn't make em for long.

The specials are circa 99-00.  There may be a copyright date on the Ambulance sticker.

Question and thread hijack-

I'm guessing by the serial number on the Challenger that it's a Challenger Pro. Does anyone know what serial numbers a Challenger XL would have?

That must be it.

SCP = S&M Challenger Pro

SCL = S&M Challenger Long

Okay, now...anyone want to sell or trade theirs?  :)

I wanted a 1" with canti mounts. I like that the wish bone makes more sence with canti mounts, and canti mounts are so RACE. I guess I will have to make do with my 990 mounted one. I just gotta get the decals sorted!
