This is one of those bike that I've always wanted. Riverside Schwinn was my "go to" shop when I need or "wanted" something that was a bit more exotic than my down the street shop had. Riverside shop was only a couple more miles away, but when you're a kid a couple miles is a long way. A lot of the guys I went to school with were on Team RRS and they always had the coolest bikes. I was always very envious! Even though I was riding a Gary Turner at the time.
Anyway, so as luck and $ would have it, I came across this f/f with the OG eccentric BB and cantis right here on this website! Thanks Juan!. I was stoked to say the least! This is a great handling bike with lots of innovations that were way ahead of their time. I dig it!
On a side note, right next to the photographers studio is Motley Crue's storage facility. And they happened to be unloading the Semi when I was there. So the Crue's gear and road cases were all out in the parking lot. Just thought that was interesting.
Here's some early BMX plus magazine pics...
