Post by: neil on February 07, 2013, 03:50 PM

Hopefully my bike should be here soon it's in uk customs :( don't know how long it'll take!
But I'm looking at changing the bars , stem brake and lever forks grips and maybe tyres any ideas?

Had 96 GT pro series and upgraded parts through to 1999.

S&M slam bars (Running/dancing man decal)
Primo grips
Comp 3 with black walls
Changed the brakes to Shimano DX v-brakes. I used silver, but the red one were popular.
Was going to get a Profile frame and get S&M forks (Pitch?) but packed up racing.
A few were racing on Answer forks.

Hope that helps.
