I have a pk ripper looptail serial number pk67616
Can someone please help id.

There is no way to distinguish a build date with serial#s on a PK. Looptails are 84 and earlier

Post a pic of the frame and fork. Depending on its configuration you can get a range of years.

Sorry the pictures are lo quality.Had to use the blackberry.

I would say that with the serial number being so high, it is most likely an 84. At some point, someone put 2nd gen gray drip decals on it.

Nice repair job on the post. Talk to SERACINGMAN!!

I remember reading somewhere the PKs only had straight chainstays for one year? Just cant recall which year!!

Only one year of straight chainstays as a NON looptail. That was 85. All the looptails were straight chainstay frames, which were from 79-84.

Yes,very true. And I asked myself why it didnt have the integrated seat clamp! Forgive me gents

what's going on with that drivetrain? Is that a chainring bolted to a
flight sprocket? That whole bike is kinda freakin me out.

It is pretty freaky.Tommorow is my day off so i can strip it all down and see whats what.Hopefully i can ship it out to be repaired soon.Just need to find someone to do it.Ive emailed a couple of people with no responses

it's a mid-school Redline spider/chainring (looks like the crank, too).

Contact Tim (SERacingman on here) or Rod Miles to do the seat tube repair.

Those are the two people that i emailed.hopefully i will get some reply.i think the cranks and the bars came off a late 80s redline.

Rod is out of state at a family funeral. Tim's busy too. Be patient. They'll get back to you. Both stand up guys.

sounds like good advice.thanks
