Finally riding a big boys bike
I picked up this weird bike that someone customized. The guy I bought it from was in his 70’s and he said it was his wife’s uncle’s bike. So it’s probably been like this for a while. Looks like the frame and maybe the bars and forks are original. Most of the other parts look like they can off a 60’s middleweight. The banana seat has troxel MX stamped on it. I actually took it for a spin and the Dana is working and shifting good. There’s not enough bike there to bring back so I’ll probably throw some parts at it to make it a mild custom that better suits my tastes. Not totally sure if the Dana will stay or not.
My knowledge on these is pretty limited. Is there a way to date it? Here’s a serial number but it’s hard to read.
