1997 Schwinn Predator LE

first Predator with Epicenter seat stay

once again another CL find. the guy wanted $125 for the bike, talked him down to $40. the bearings were all loose and the crank was bent, but the rest was all original down to the XS dirtdiggler tires. bought to race at local BMX track: Emery BMX wichita,KS. havent had time to do so yet. the grips were worn thou, so i threw on some sweet orange ODI grips. A new KMC chain was installed too. threw on some new peddles aswell. hope you like. i love the OG pad set & tektro brakes!!!
From what i have gathered history wise with these bikes is that they were only offered in a small quantity and were the first of the EpiCenter seat stays. if you have any more info, pass it on...

Re: 1997 Schwinn Predator LE

Just picked up one of these today off CL. Needs a bit more work than yours did but im excited to redo it. I'll use yours as a guide if you don't mind.
