looky looky at what I found
Anyway to tell the year? When where these made? Are these race or freestyle (or both) bars?

check out the restoration section, there are some great CW images, also the CW page http://www.cw-racing.com/pages/history.
they look like nice pro bars to me. 83. but im no expert. probabvly considered a race bar BITD, but i used them for freestyle so what ever works for ya. good height / knee clearance for me at 190cm... PM if you want to get rid of them, they are kinda horrible! ![]()

Some love them, some hate them. They have always been one of my favorite bars.

Re: looky looky at what I found
Most folks HATE them, and run screaming in the other direction...![]()
I happen to like them, as they provide some nice space under the bar...
good luck with them, whatever you do...

Re: looky looky at what I found
Some of my favorite bars - run 'em on two of my bikes - congrats on the find. I've only known them as race bars, but that's just me.

Re: looky looky at what I found
Here is more stuff. I actually bought the bike for these rims. I think they will look nice on my 80s build ![]()
There are no markings on the rims that I have yet found, however there appears to have been a decal surrounding the stem valve hole. Any information anyone is willing to share about these will be greatly appreciated. Hubs are Suzue sealed ![]()

the wheels look like Pro Class, not positive because there were a few knock offs that looked like pro class. but to me they look like pro class that came on the 80s model mongoose bikes.

Re: looky looky at what I found
These came off a bike dating back to late 81. The tire I removed had almost become one with the rim, so I am sure these are definitely genuinely old ![]()

Re: looky looky at what I found
This thing came installed on the same bike
In my humble opinion, looks to be the ugliest headset lock ever. Anyone know more about this piece?

Re: looky looky at what I found
Here is the bike as it appeared on eBay
I have everything except the saddle (good). The grips are made by Fisher-Price ![]()
K stamped 1981 KZ-2
As mentioned before, I really wanted the rims for a build (and the crank too), so the rest is being parted out. Headset lock has been sold already. Watch for the frame (it is in A++ condition)
