Grove Hard Cores, neon goodness x 2 1989-1991

[FirstFlight]

Here are pictures of our pair of Grove Hard Core bikes. The blue and pink one has been around for awhile and these are just new pictures. The 5 color fade bike was a recent pick up in Raleigh, NC.

Absolutely, not sure I've seen as nice a bike as this in a while. Where do you keep getting them from?

The 5 color bike was actually a (semi) local pick up. The bike had been ridden in college and then given to a relative who didn't really like the bike. There were a couple of recent parts additions that we corrected and gave it a good cleaning.

Awesome bikes. I'm digging the matching straps on the pedals. Now all that's missing is some matching Hot Rods . . .

Lovely nonetheless. The closest I'll ever get to that will be that I own the same bottle cage.

My eyes!! :shock:

definately distinctive and of the era, the 5 colour bike is a real car crash of neon but yet works very well

Yes, I like a subtle bike too... :shock:

Is it my eyes or a trick of the camera but the BB heights look very different between the two bikes?
