1979 Torker
1979 Torker
LP "low" mild steel 1979 frame. 1976 RedLine forks. Bought frame at Rockford in '07 (non-original paint, broken seat tube). Framedoc did the repair and frame now looks 99.5% new.

Cool frame. I always wanted a white Torker.
What you have there is an L.P. (Low Profile--the standard Torker frame late-1978-1981.) in mild steel. The LM at the end of the SN means L.P. Mild steel.
Where is the SN? On the BB shell or the drop out? Lemme know and I'll tell you the year. It's either 1979 or 1980.
The stickers on it when you bought it are all wrong. Those are 1983 stickers.
Bikes owned 1978-1989: '78 Schwinn Scrambler 36/36, '78 Redline Proline, '77 Redline MX-II, Thruster, '79 Torker, '77 Roger DeCoster, '80 JMC, '80 Fuji Feather, '81? Boss (STOLEN!), '82 Hutch Pro Racer, '83 Patterson, '83 GT, '83 Profile Champ Pro (still trying to get dates right)

Re: 1979 Torker
SN is on the bb. It was blue originally, but I did it in white 'cause the parts I have for it would have looked terrible on blue...

It's a 1979.
I have that same SN in my "collection" from some where else. Maybe it as on ebay? Not many notes next to it, though, so I had little info.
Anyway, it's a 1979 mild steel L.P..
