I sold my chrome slams to a mate, I see them every week, so it's all good.

After seeing this posted in the bike porn thread, I realized I do kind of miss it. I've got the seat on my 24" Dirt Bike now, mostly everything else has been sold.

Those came stock at 25" and were way beefier than normal slams, sold them when i was absolutely desperate for money

I thought spec wise they were identical to regular slams, but with thicker tubing and a 1" cross bar. I still have some raw ones on a Dirt Bros Trail R Park. I chopped them down, but swear they're more than 25" wide.

that standard is awesome! what gear ratio did you have on that thing? i'm looking to build a similar race bike..

In that photo it's a 36-13. I also used a 47-17 on it for a while and a 33-12 towards the end.

While not raw, that description made me think of this.

My Pantera 2 with the sprayed purp 7kas. Fuck that bike brings me back. I think this was when I first started running my Nankai. Pretty much the best feeling bike ever.
