1981 Torker 26
my baby
I bought this frame and fork sight unseen from a good friend.
it has a small dent in the down tube, other than that it's pretty cherry. I
mountain bike raced it but decided to retire it and restore it. The build is
mainly NOS including the Shimano DX/Araya wheel set. The bars came
With the frame and I was told they were cook bros. I can't really find
Any that match, so any input would help!!!
Don't be that guy!

That is a FRICKIN BEAUT!!!
Always looking for Cook Bros. stuff, vintage SE stuff, MCS 6 bolt Super stems, and Race Inc. Leading Edge/Cycle Pro/BMX innovations 20" forks. All NOS or in very nice condition.
