1993 Off-Road Team Toad

[mk one]

I like that, it actually looks great with all the decals missing. And it also looks bigger than a 16". What length is the top tube out of curiosity?

Top tube is 21.5” Mark

Re: Re:

I've never really done a Syncros build, and this seemed like the perfect project, so that's the direction I'll be heading in. Deciding on a fork took some time but I plumped for an Accutrax

Erm....shouldn't that be a Powerlite then? :?

I thought about it, briefly, but I prefer the Accutrax, plus the Powerlite was long gone by then.

I love that you are taking your time with this Adrian. It gives you time to consider your decisions, and what feels best. This Toad is in such good hands...

Thanks Shamus It does require a little more thought as it’s later than most of my bikes and a lot was changing around this time (plus I don’t want to sneak a Toad out of Canada and then make a mess of it )

Thanks Jim and Roy. Hopefully this one won't disappoint. Another fork change is already on the cards!
