Too right Gogo. Ive got he GT Profiles that came off it to swap back in there when I ride it hard. It'd be a real shame to snap those cranks.

The rear tyre is a Comp 8 (I think). It was the only 1.75 amber wall I could get hold of.

I'll be "dumbing down" my Challenger to make it more period correct.

New School Skyways to be replaced with Arayas rims/GT Mohawk hubs.
dialled bikes bars to be replaced with Challenger bars.
Shimano brake lever to be replaced with whatever will work with a Pitbull.
Crupi Beartraps to be replaced by Shimano DX (if I can get them re-furbed).

After that, everything on it (apart from the headset) will be late-80s/early 90s stuff.
