Proflex 857 frame, polished aluminium 20" (large), carbon swingarm.

My mate has one for sale just want to see if any interest out there. Price not determined yet, but will be well under £100. Easton custom ProGram aluminium tubing, carbon rear swingarm. Has coil spring conversion on ODS shock.  

Anybody interested? Located near Loughborough, UK.

Here is a pic of it as a complete bike. It'll be much shinier than in the picture as that was after some serious riding!!  



Here it is as a frame, he wants £75 incl postage (UK) to include front mech, BB and FSA headset.

Afternoon chaps!
I'm in need of whatever bushes are used for sideways location of the top of an ODS on the rear of an 856!  Can't remember what's supposed to be there, but I assume it's a couple of bits of black plastic like on the front...  :)
Anyone got em knocking around?

Hello everyone.

Thought I'd post here to find a new loving home for my old 857 & Girvin fork.

Clueless on how to post pics so here's a link to them.

http://picasaweb.google.com/romar67/Proflex857GirvinFork

The frame is a medium and as you can see in the pic, the original NR2 is broken. I'm selling as is with the OE XT crankset, seatpost & clamp.


The Girvin Crosslink Elite is in good shape with the OE NR2 shock.

Make me an offer!!

There is no location in your profile. Where are you located? I may be interested in the frame.

its exactly what he says it is a 1990 this is the first pro-flex produced before the 550 750 950 range with dayglow swing arms which actually came in 1990-1991 then followed my 862 design same as your 753. i know a fair bit about this era check out my ramblings in how long you rode pro-flex for topic.


Dang it! Your reply made me buy it.:-)So this is where it all began eh?

It really looks cool and can't wait to take it for a spin.
