Re: 1976 R&R
Nice frame Jay and a great score. That looks maybe like a R&R Superlight frame.

Re: 1976 R&R
yes, that's an R&R CR-1. my 77 didn't have a brake bridge.
that was my first real BMX bike.

Re: 1976 R&R
A picture of me racing my old R&R. Sorry, but for a taller guy (I was like 5 10) the bike sucked the big lewboski.
I bought it used and loved how it looked. But it rode as crappy as a Patterson.

Re: 1976 R&R
That's not a Superlight. The superlight is light chromo with a square tube of chromo holding the seatpost, not a plate like ours. These were made of mild steel and weight a bit more.
Here's mine built as it was the day it was stolen after 8th grade:
If I can find it I'll post a PDF of the review from the first BMXA magazine.
