Wow... so many replies...im overwhelmed :smitten:
I have been stripping, scrubbing and polishing(sounds saucy) all day and have just finished the Streak bar the brakes... It now looks Mint(bling)
  Danny thats a beautiful trio of bikes.... nice one m8. Do you ride them? I intend to do one for show and one to ride :)
Scary Leary... i didnt know that the parts were not available otc. The Turbo has a Kashimax five gold fitted. My mum is going to restore that for me. Someone contacted me about black suede and i cant remember who...maybe sawzall :\  When i paid for the UPS shipping it said no other charges would be incurred. I took this to mean import tax and VAT too :uglystupid2:. I am going to chase it up as i think they have overcharged me anyway.
  Rom Bloke.... Bob by name bob by nature(bob: northern terminology for turd) :LolLolLolLol:
Jazz Chimp... now i am confused :idiot2:  looking at the spyder side which way do i turn to loosen then? :uglystupid2:
 Sawzall..... Gifted a Turbo.... wow kick ass. Do you have any spare friends? Was it you who said about the black suede?
Frosty... cheers for the link. I have 2 Turbo stems, but that one is in particularly nice condition.
  Sam and Frankie... The Streak will be available soon.... i will post pics and price then.
 Danny I didnt bid on the Diamond Back padset that just sold.... I will save the £100 i have set aside for a set until i find some in better nick. £75 plus shipping was too much for them in that condition.
 Thanks all for your replies and support... it makes me feel kinda fuzzy :smitten:

In reference to the crank, work it backwards. As you pedal it should tighten the nuts

I worked at halfords in the late 80s and Turbos were £125, ifonly
i had bought them all and put them in the loft till now. Today
Leary would HAVE Haro, any one seen Joe Kidd, Harry looks
the skinhead hard nut and Bob looks GAY.

£125 sounds cheap.I could swear that they were going for £350 in the early 80's...i used to drool over one in the window of my local bike shop.My Streak cost £225 in 83/4....I should have gone to Halfords ;D
