Beach Bum III
Finally riding a big boys bike
Thanks for getting back to me. I’ve got some ‘68 bars and yes, they are comfy. I’m looking for the ‘63-‘65 bars for a proto-moto build. I found a Campus Green, ‘69 Fastback that I’m putting together as an early BMX (‘74 era) and those bars just seem right. Very flat. Hoping to find a really beat up pair because I want to weld on a low crossbar and not feel too guilty about it. Clearance on the Fastback will be an issue with 2.124 knobbies but I think I can tweak things a bit and get it to work. Stock fork is probably a no go.I haven’t looked at the date. I believe it’s technically right, really same era and right on the cusp. I did have a 66 deluxe before with the same bar and it was original. Definitely more comfortable than the bar you’re talking about. 68-69 is the most comfortable in my opinion.
