I have a mini mcs spider that I used to race from ages 4-10 that I just dug out of the attic and I have no clue on how to go about refurbishing. I noticed that neon might be able to help me with some local questions. I am actually refurbishing the mini for my son but also thinking about getting back into racing myself. I do not have my picture of it online as of now but will be posting soon. the spider was purchased in 83 for 340 dollars. If anyone can help me my phone number is (850)586-8557. thank you ,
paul

man this thing is so great have you gotten any closer to putting it together?

ALAKRAN · 2009-01-19 1:15pm

yes i picked up a nos mcs seatpost and some red ukai hoops with bullseye hubs, still undecided on cranks either these sugino cranks or redline 401 might be too much red with these cranks. also still looking for another nos suntour xc2 cage in black no brakes yet and no seat or tires.

What size seat post is it? I just got a turbo spider frame. I tried a 7/8" and it is too big, I tried a 13/16" and it's too small. I'm at a loss what size it is supposed to be.

neon · 2009-02-15 5:36am

i think its a 22.2
