1976 Kenny Roberts
1976 Kenny Roberts
76 Kenny Roberts, ACS Z-Rims
This is my childhood bike. I bought the frame used in 1980, and the parts mainly from Mr. Bicycle in Fairfield Ca. Serial number 109. I just replaced (late 2006) the tires, seat and seat post with NOS parts. I think this is a 76 Kenny Roberts?
The frame was originally sold by Jim's Bike Shop in Richmond Ca.
The 'older' picture is from a few weeks ago, before I replaced some parts with NOS.

Re: 1976 Kenny Roberts
Cool. Never seen one before. And, I, too, was thinking it looks Sentry like. I think the OG ad for the Sentry has Kenny Roberts in with Brent Patterson. Very cool.

Re: 1976 Kenny Roberts
I like the angle between the back bars right behind the seat and just in front of the seat looks better then alot of other bikes from that time.
