Most usual places to crack were headtubes (usually at the front!) and any parts of the webbing on the seatstay/seattube junction. Will need a fair bit of maintenance in the uk too!

I know this is a bit of a longshot but anyways, the pro-floater is being resprayed now and somewhere in the two house moves i've lost the spare decal set (it'll turn up one day i'm sure). does anyone know of where i could find either a spare set or where i could get a scan made up any help...

Which version is this one, all aluminium or the older version with the cro-mo stays? still regret selling mine!

Trying to find a couple of bits and pieces. 1. Syncros stem, ahead, black, 1 1/8, pref not hinged front 2. any 28.6 dia seatpost, black 3. Mag21 lowers, good cond, or complete fork? 4. Red anodised rear hub, 36 hole cheers for any help
