Thanks guys!   :daumenhoch:


Yes...the 1st Generation Pro Class cranks have no decal recess on the arms like the 2nd Generation have.  Also...you can see the extra little weld on the drive-side arm...look in this picture below very carefully...borrowed from Warren's beautiful site.  You'll see the little welded bracket at 7 o'clock on the black power plate.

They were stock on the Eric Rupe and 24" Pro Class models...haven't seen another set yet.   :(

Cheers Tom.  Great bit of info.

I thought the sticker indent was missing on the Judge pics.  Thanks for the close up shots.  I see it now, stock on the 85 models, by time the 86 catalogue came out they had the indent.  Respect is due, a quality bit of work!  :daumenhoch: 

That welded bracket is pretty mad  :D!  Connects to the bolt hole for the powerplate by the looks of it....nice.

I needed the Pro Class cranks for something I might have in the works.   ;)

So...I decided to throw a set of Aero-Speeds on her...they are genuine 180's complete.  The arms and bolts were re-chromed and the disc has been polished.

She has been changed a bunch of times...but this is the final change...the Pro Class hoops are way nicer then Arayas...  :D .  Although...they're basically the same...just with holes. 

The only thing repopped on her are the decals....everything else is 100%.   :coolsmiley:

Thanks John...!!!  LOL...Yes...they are destined for a beautiful Goose...no worries...!!!

I am totally happy how I ended the Judge build.  I based this picture as my model...even though I'm pretty sure that is either a Hollywood or Pro Racer in the picture.

Thanks lads...!!!   :daumenhoch:

Maybe it's the snow that sets it off...we have more on the way actually...!!!

But...really...pictures do not do this one justice.  It is 100% better looking in person.  I'm gonna have to bring this one to Sears...LOL...!!!  Everyone will have their kids for pictures and I'll have my bike.

Though...my baby boy is due in May...so maybe I'll take him and the Hutch for a photo shoot...  ;D .
