SoCal Weekend Score..some cool early 80's parts on it.

Very cool score! I love the early Supercross frames.

cool score..its strange that it does'nt have canti mounts on it, I have serial #1045 and it has them and I also have a cruiser #082 and it has canti mounts as well. My mini f&f set #011 does not though.

The forks look like S&M forks.

Yeah the late 80's Supercross frames are nice and long, I think the Forks are Supercross as well but not sure..I quit racing in '85 so not that familiar with them .. Looks like the parts were from an early 80's Redline and swapped over to this frameset in the late 80's...has 175mm Flight Cranks which i'll probably keep, has RL Forklifter Bars, Araya Aero Rims with a Phil Wood Rear Hub and DK Front Hub...ODI Seat Post?

That's just an ODI bar end plug stuck in the open tubing of the seatpost layback.
Were Elf Zip seatposts open like that or did they have welded caps?

Nice score! I wanna say they aren't Supercross forks. These came off of my '95 f&f. Yours look way beefier. I would think they wouldn't decrease size as they got newer.

LOL! Sorry about the huge pics for the blind! Forgot to shrink them. tongue.gif

Yeah 2112 said they look like S&M forks...i've got an S&M Cruiser and they look similiar.

Yeah man! Lovin' those Redline bars! Cranks and pedals are nice looking too!

I think those are late 80s parts as well. The rounded DK stem, the DK front hub, the elf seat post, triple trap pedals, all late 80s. Hard to say on the flights but they were that style up into the late 80s also.

I scored an 89 Elf with similar parts. Sweet score you got there.
