Sanmarcopizza · « **Reply #10 on:** February 23, 2006, 08:45 PM »

They are actually matt silver with a black flame design. Cool for a mid school build.

Zippy · « **Reply #11 on:** February 23, 2006, 08:45 PM »

Those are Odyssey T1000 rims I was telling you about. My advice would be to get the rims from somewhere like ebay here's a link to the guy I've had my sets from. You could ask him if he's got any in plain alloy colour.

I had a set of these rims laced to a set of TNT derringer hubs which spin so smoothly it's incredible. You could have a really strong good running wheelset for just under £100, and they'll be brand spankers as well. As I've said I've got two sets of these rims laced to the TNT hubs and I'm so impressed.

The TNT is sold by Mark that owned and manufactered TNT back in the day. Good bloke as well.

San, what does the stamp say in your rear dropout? Pro, L, XL ect?

Zippy · « **Reply #15 on:** February 23, 2006, 09:46 PM »

San's is XL. All the Amtrac models were XL sized frames if I remember corectly. Not many of those about either.

Bren Gunn · « **Reply #16 on:** February 23, 2006, 09:57 PM »

Are you sure? I have an XL and it only has a 20.5 top tube, I thought the Amtrac was 21".

wolfybmx · « **Reply #17 on:** February 23, 2006, 10:06 PM »

only 21 inches!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!........... this is a contender for the longest top tube ever, a full 22.5 pro xxl

Bren Gunn · « **Reply #18 on:** February 23, 2006, 10:14 PM »

Zippy · « **Reply #22 on:** February 23, 2006, 11:46 PM »

I love my red one. not sure if I've ever showed a picture of it before, but here it is.

It's not got different wheels on it and the bars have been changed as has the seatpost, but apart from that it's still the same.

dbgeezza · « **Reply #23 on:** February 24, 2006, 07:46 AM »
