And the background image provides a clue to the name, I believe that's a Max Wedge Plymouth drag carView attachment 840781

I’ve alway thought that blurry car in the background was a 70’s Impala or Caprice, or a Plymouth Fury, but hey, why not what you say?

Lol I get excited sometimes... I'm probably wrong

Thanks!

I like your build as well. The OG cranks go really well as well as the M950 bits. Love the red accents too.

I think these are great riding bikes

Regarding the 94 RM Blizzard :

Actually I think it is corrected and runs a slightly longer rigid fork. If anyone owns them they can measure them.
Syncros are earlier forks.

Just measured the original 94 Blizzard forks' A-C and it's 395 mm

Syncros direct A2C, one min, I happen to have them in the other room...
~178mm or 182.5 if you include the shim I have fitted probably a bit less
I better adjust the white line to go through the axle centre compared to the photo, could be half a mm less again ;-)
~180mm would be the normal length for a standard fork I believe.


MAG20/21 are 405mm I think, so 395 would be a good adjusted length for a rigid fork for the time, MAG being the shorter of most the forks, part of their compromise.

I measure my Syncros to be 380mm A-C, Thanks! (Edited, faulty tape measure, corrected )

If I really need to make up that variance, I have 7mm up top I can grab
