Prairie Breaker PRO

January 31, 2013

aqua blue pink  SHOGUN

I got my hands on this tricolor triple triangle timewarp yesterday. A classic example of steel bike resuscitation that brings a smile to my face. Visualizing the original owner purchasing this beauty for $600 in 1988. Stretched out wheel base head tube fork rake biopace U-brake laid back laid out late 80's. Fast forward to February 2013 to see the Bike Works customer that purchases it refurbished for $226.
