1983 Hutch Pro Star
My holy grail since I was 14.
This is complete and correct except for the seat and the tires. I'm still looking for a "HUTCH" stamped Kashimax, and also some Hutch labeled tires. However, I DO have titanium spokes on this bike which I believe the early Pro Stars came with. They were custom made by Marwi. The pads are real Flight pads from the 80's.....not re-pops! This build took me about two years to complete, and two jobs to afford building it! It was all worth it when my grail was finally sitting in my living room.
