Does anyone remember those bars John Lee had made called monkey bars? A friend of mine bought me a patterson F/F off ebay from long island and it came with bars. From what I remember they look alot like Monkey bars. I just got off the phone with john lee and from what he said we are thinking they are. He is going to take a look at them and he will know for sure. Im just stoked and wanted to write about them. I haven't seen anything on here about them yet.

There's a commercial for that stuff in one of the early BASE videos with Enos dragging a bunch of frames and parts behind a minibike. I don't think I've ever seen any of the parts in person.

Sold a few sets of the Woody cranks and the Monkey bars at my shop back in 1998. Cranks had a lifetime guarantee, customer had an arm break 2 years or so after he had bought them. Sent em in and they sent back a brand new set of WoodyII cranks, they had an extra gusset wrapped around the outside of the spindle boss.
