Hi Guys , I've been asked to start a new topic in Readers Wife's, oh sorry, Readers Bikes, yes meant Readers Bikes (old habits die hard) I am now the proud owner of an early Ridgeback in all original condition down to tyres and possibly brake blocks as the anodising has yet to wear off the rims which normally happens pretty quickly.
Bi-plane forks, SR slingshot stem, Red-S brakes ( what are those please?) Cro-moly tubing, Oakley mushroom grips, Madison seat. Now I've gleaned from here that Ridgeback started in Canada in 83 and entered Europe in 84 so I'm guessing this is 84-86, I started MTB 87/88 and had never seen Bi-plane forks even then. Have never seen one of these in the flesh or tut inter web ! Could this be the UK's only one? Does anyone else own one ?
Cheers
