1990 IRD Circuit Racer

[FirstFlight]

Not a lot of information out there on the Circuit Racers and I haven't seen another one so I guess they are a little bit unusual?? It has the IRD Switchback brakes, IRD post and IRD Expedition fork. Need to find an IRD stem and maybe a Bullseye keeper kit to add to it but this is what we have right now. Interesting pulley on the stays to reroute the down tube mounted rear brake cable.

That is very cool. I thought you would have had a whole drawer full of IRD stems you could have used.

Not a single one! If I needed a Syncros, that would have been easy.

The dimensions are listed on the web page. 17" frame, 24" top tube and 1.25" bottom bracket. Most of the IRD stuff tends long and low.
