Hi all,
I was on here years ago for a short while and then life changed.
Just starting back into cycling again, it isn't pretty.
Anyway, years ago, when they were first out, I had a go at a Kirk precision road bike.
Rather liked the stiffness of it.
I came across a kirk frame and thought it would be fun to put together to try it out.
I was going to do a hybrid type job on it.
I wondered if there were Kirk officianados on here, I see a few people have them.
Anyway I have a bunch of questions about it that I can't quite work out.
It is missing a bunch of bits.
I am trying to work out whether it was the Precision MTB or maybe the ranger (a hybrid)
Also, whether that makes any difference at all? Were they all made exactly the same but with the odd different lug?
I ask as I don't have anywhere for the rear brake to sit, so was curious if they just put a 27" or an MTB 26" or a 700c and that was it?
That is my first question really, did they make different frames for a different wheel size????
Cheers.
