1982 Hutch Expert Racer
Rare Thruster built Hutch Expert Racer.
I picked this up as just a frame with some Gold Araya 7c's laced to 1979 Shimano gold hubs in a package deal and have built it into what you see here. I will probably continue to bring it back to original over time but it gets expensive in a hurry!
I enjoyed doing the research on it and haven't found many like it! From what i've read, this is one of the frames that left Thruster out the back door so that Thruster could recoup some money that Hutchins owed them. I guess it was a business deal that was kept on the down low.
I still want a pro like this but it will probably be awhile!
Parts are as follows:
-Wheels are Araya 7X's powdered Charcoal with red Shimano hubs.
-Powerlite expert powerbend bars.
-Ame grips.
-DK polished stem.
-Dyno Drainpipe seat post.
-Elina Flyte Tech seat.
-Tuf Neck re-pop seat post clamp.
-1982 Dia Compe brake set.
-New Redline Flight 180 Crankset.
-Old KMC silver chain.
-Tange headset.
-VP Beartrap pedals.
-Hutch Expert Racer frame.
-Hutch forks from a Pro Raider I believe.
-Re-pop Comp III tires.
-And a new decal set from Hutch High Performance.
*It's not done yet but are they EVER?*
