Might as well add my former Kirk Revolution DX (with Amp F2 forks), both were a great idea at the time and could have revolutionised :wink: the market. Still a strking bike to look at though!

Came across this website the other day, where you take a digital picture of an old photo, but superimpose them by taking it in the same place (just many years later). Thought it would be amusing to post this and see what other bike related pics and memories appear. Simon...

There's a couple of pics of these Kirks with the TVM team and during the Ruta del Sol '91 - near the bottom of the Gallery page. http://www.haydn-automation.co.uk/Kirk-Gallery.htm

Thanks, I was hoping someone would help me identify those parts (I'll remove them from the page). Fair point about whether this should be here or in the For Sale section, I'd be happy for it to be moved, but it's more to let people know that some hard to find parts have been found. Most...

Hi, I have a selection of Kirk Revolution spare parts available now, including the elusive mech hangers and rear droputs - there is also a new FAQ section on buying advice and decals too. Contact me via my webpage for prices/further info on the link at the bottom:

All the Revolution frames were 18.5" and the full specs are on my webpage.

Precison frames are popular and seem to go for £50-100, but there's no set price on eBay and it does depend on their condition. You'll have to post a pic on here. I mentioned the mech hanger issue to Frank Kirk last November, but he doesn't have any and he's going to see if he's still got...

Quite a few people want Kirk Precisions and they sell very well on eBay, but you'll struggle to find a rear mech hanger sadly. I've got plenty of pics of how they look on my PC and a few on my webpage, if you're interested.

Whatever happened to the planned Retrobike top trumps idea? It seemed to be a popular idea, as there wasn't anything else like it at the time, but now there is: http://www.roughrideguide.co.uk/Bike_Trumps.html

Here's a video of just how strong these frames are: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZdU8j5ydVuI

This is a very rare MTB version of the Kirk Precision, the rear brake mounting gives it away. Frank Kirk produced a conventional rear triangle version of the wellknown racer and rarer MTB, then he went on to produce the troublesome Revolution MTB. These are very good and solid frames, the...

You could always run it with an internal hub gear, like a Shimano Alfine.

Some retro videos (courtesy of Frank Kirk) covering interviews with Phil Anderson, Phil Ligget, Steve Poulter and Frank Kirk on the Kirk Precision. There's also the famous bike crush test versus a conventional steel frame that was shown on Tomorrow's World. Video 1 - Kirk Precision...

I've finally gotten a copy of the Tomorrow's World episode (and some promotional video too) and it shows the Kirk being driven over at the very end of the show. Not a mark on it. I'll post it up soon.

A question for the masses! If you had the chance to question/interview the designer of a classic British bike, what questions would you ask?

The choice of music has had a mixed response on this and other forums, but it does seem to suit the Kirk!

Thanks, interest on eBay is picking up and there a few Kirk fans on here, even if the bike is a tad divisive! Really like what you've done with your Kona by the way, they've always looked good with skinny slicks.
