You may remember this - the second oldest surviving Gen 2 Master (I am still working on the oldest). It has the first ever RGD Rotor, an RGD Stem engraved with the owners name, Araya Aero's and VDC Woody bars.
It was in a real state and the owner did not want it to be mint, so that he could still use it for no handed cherry pickers, tail whips etc and also wants to get 6 foot again using it on the ramps.
It has come out very well, and is pretty much how it was in early 85.
All it needs now is a few more hours of cleaning, the cables all cut and fixed for the rare RGD, a set of blue tuff pads, and a chain.
What do you reckon?
I love it, and it brings back so many memories for me seeing it from back in the day and being able to work on it now.
I have also managed to save all the stickers - on the spindle, rims, seat post and bars so that it is exactly how it was when it did demo's and shows back in the day.
It feels solid and responsive with the postion and angles of the Woody bars.
