I had 2 of those frames in my old store many years ago.
I had a chrome and a red one, and were made for eastern.

These were originally US made (1" versions) ... not sure about the 1.1/8" versions.
owned at that point by Jon Byers.

Cant remeber the damn name of the model .... boy that bugs me.

the us made versions of the frames were definatly beef, but also somewhat raw arround the edges in regards to construction.

these are from the 1998 period.

That Eastern frame kind of reminds me of my 2-HIP Pork frame at the front.
