Philbert · « **Reply #3 on:** December 20, 2008, 08:27 PM »

i spotted that standard stem and considered bidding on the whole bike just for the fooker!

but as you asked so nicely and you have a great ass,

i'll refrain

good luck philbert i'll leave it alone as long as i can hook up with you and laz for an inspection of the standards.

i always enjoyed gorping at your builds way back int 90s

looks like harris is hooking me up with a return to the army. 250s. 20.75 will do nice.

then maybe i'll see the hitch 4 a newby

what the hell is the frame?

i'll kick myself i know it

s&m "classic" dirtbike

trls250s sound nice, no need for a new one

the gusset threw me. i thought it was some signature frame or something, or generic junk with quality decals

i don't like it looks awful.

i lost my way with the white 1 1/8" oversized dirtbike.

bloomin 7/8" seatpost grrrrrr and the drops are very slightly paccoed and widened out somehow. one for the wall.

so i have nearly built my challenger up again, i'm waiting on a chrome rim and it's rolling again.

lighter faster!

i dismantled this bike a while back
the rebuild is going to be pretty much the same except
kink sex drive sprocket, with nylon bashguard (should upset the 23/8 boys at the park)

s and m dx pedals
green cable,
nitroed and polished the hubs (ghetto polish) green spokes chrome sun bc lite rear rim(in post),
demolition zeppelin tyres demo eldorado bars
union green quarrel seat,
just the s and m stickers.
and definitely my fave ever frame. this ones an xl and will be my rider for the forseeable future.
i'm sure my other in the 90s was a regular size. the bmx gypo "lent" it off stoke bloke, never to be heard of again?

skyways sucked man

has anyone got the frame dimensions and angles for the mid 90s challenger, the challenger xl and the first oversize 1 1/8 holmes??? i'm puzzled that the chall had a shorter rear than the holmes?

and was there any difference in tubing thickness between the mid 90s v brake challenger and 990 version? was the 990 one beefier for trails boys??? it is pre RV and TV frames. which are what the challenger progressed to i guess.
