Re: Bassett Racing...let's see em!
Basset is a cool company. That bar that runs from bb all the way to the headtube is so sick in design. Great decals too. Nice builds in this post even that rust bucket 26er is sick!

Thanks man! Not going brakeless, I've got a 2 speed Torpedo kick back hub on the way. For now I've got an old Tech 3 lever and some Dia Compe 1000(porkys) with some NOS yellow Vans brake shoes to use until my wheels are rebuilt.
Here's my bike thread...

The Bassett ladies cruiser!
Here's an old article from Oct 1980 in BMX Plus!
And some photos I stole off the internet. No harm intended.

I took this photo the other day at True Torch, this is Johnny Sevrin's...

Re: Bassett Racing...let's see em!
Here's a Bassett "mini" that popped up for sale many moons ago over at the "Society". A bit rough.....Yes, but I love everything about it. The added gussets, drilled parts and the Ralph's Bicycles decals make me wish I was around to purchase it.

Just scored these NOS undrilled Bassett 20" forks. Not sure what I'm going to do with em but I've been Bassett hounding and couldn't turn em down.
