Hey...

The 1984/1985 Rupes have the flat style brake bridge...the 1986/1987 Rupes have the raised type bridges.

Also...you can find the raised type brake bridge on the later model 24" Pro Class frames.

If you know why they changed it up...please let me know...LOL???

Cheers...

Thanks my friend...I have a few tube decals also...but...I'd like to use the correct part if possible.

I have a bunch of the badges...but they are all connected to some very nice Mongeese!!! :D I don't have the heart to strip one off of my other frames. Ideally I'd like to find a cracked/bent frame with a nice badge to remove it from.

So if anybody has one...let me know!

Cheers...
