send guy email but no reply

what year is this is it 1 inch headtube???

[SaMAlex]

It looks like its 1" but cant be sure. Its got 990s so its not a very early one*.
If it is 1", its probably a mk2 dirtbike, any year from 1992/3 to 1996. Other clues would help age it, like frame number, dropout style (one think one, or 2 thin ones stuck together).

*mk2s came with and without 990s, I dont think mk1s ever came with mounts.


Hope that helps

Oh also

"here you can see my s&m "CLASSIC DIRT BIKE" bmx frame (one of the first frames they made along with the challenger race frame)"

The first frames were the K9 and the Mad Dog in the late 80s, the Dirt Bike in late 80s/early 90s with the Holmes close behind, and finally the Challenger well into the early 90s.

would like it if it was inch

[theRuler]

have it anyway greg

[motomagII]

hi graeme was watcing your auction too .you have pm

[SaMAlex]

Id take a guess that it IS one inch

There aint much to go on, cos the mk2 dirtbike was totally the same as the mk3 "oversized" 1 1/8 A-head, apart from the headtube.  

If he is saying its an early one then it must be 1", right?

[SaMAlex]

Someone got a good price on that, what ever size it is! 

[motomagII]

that was me decided to take a punt .hopefully inch and ill be happy .

gonna be rider for me as i only have me race bike

[SaMAlex]

I might well have some 1" pitchforks up for sale soon. Esp as you want it for a rider, cos I dont really have any NOS/Mint parts.

Remind me about it when you get the frame (and when you know what size it is).

[motomagII]
