Sunn Vertik II '98

[johnkiteman]

!998 Sunn Vertik II - XT/XTR, Pace RC36's - some dodgy bits inc grip/bar ends necessary due to age of rider

Lurvelly springy steel frame, very rare bike due to the up and down nature of the manufacturer

Can't believe this is the only photo I hev been able to find!

1998 is probably the last year for good Sunn . I have a 98 Exact .

they are rare overhere , but plenty on the other side of the chanel .

fair point - they did make some nice bikes back then - the Exact was with the Colombus frame wasn't it? You still got the obsys forks?

Yes columbus tubes :

it is my work bike , so not beautifull but functional .

no Obyss forks , but if you contact XXejen on here , he might be able to help . he also runs a Sunn forum ( in french though ) .

I'm shocked :shock:

After trawling though loving restorations on this site this evening and then.......

Great rat bike though dude

I dont like Sunn , so this was a pleasure to build .

frame is excellent though , and when i get tired of it for commuting , it might be rebuild properly .

 

[johnkiteman]

I dont like Sunn

whisper: is this a forum wide Sunn dislike just so I know not to bang on about my pride and joy

Don't worry, he claims he doesn't like Konas either.

So that puts Sunn in good company.
