Thanks for reading....
I grabbed a '90 DB Reactor Team model w/ a TT length of 20 1/2".
It has a sticker on it saying 100% chromoly ... is this true ?
It has a sticker saying " Exclusively built for WSI, Inc. Camarillo, CA 93110 "
As well it's stamped on the BB w/ (2) sets of numbers. (1) KWOHO4904 & (1) BIO262
The forks is stamped Akusu which is Japanese or Taiwanese ?
What's the deal anyone. Nice welds .... Nice survivor condition and 80% complete / orig.
Worth keeping or should I just cut it up for scrap ?
I'm tired of storing non "worthy" stuff.
Thanks

Rob, It maybe isn't worth all that much but I would be happy to have it.
Maybe we can arrange something.
We'll talk over PMs

those were all CRMO. the reactor was their top frame at the time.
WSI is Western States Imports and is who owned the DB name at the time.
the "KW" number is the serial, and if i remember right - the "BIO" number is a batch or model # and would have been the same on a bunch of frames.
taiwanese, both frame and fork.
as for worthiness, we had a couple shop guys race them BITD and liked them. one of those guys started racing again a few years ago with his OG one.
