I have a GDT languishing  in my tool box.  That is a good looking bike and the shipping is way cheap too.  Check out his other auctions for the hockey shorts.  Those might be good for the way I crash.

Thought I had best update to avoid being rude. Thanks all for thier help and messages re the 957. It has now been sold and to someone who wants to upgrade the parts closer back up to spec. I will of course point him in this direction, again many thanks to all

Your  small 957 is in near mint condition. I bought the exact model for my wife. These are highly sought after by Proflex fanatics for thier spouses and kids.  I paid about $500 for my wife's small 957. Not many were made, so they are very rare.

Again, just beautiful.

Hi,

Sylus sent me here, this is now my pride and joy, interesting to hear how rare this is. I'm currently getting all the bits together to get it working again. The rear shock does need a rebuild (I have access to HP nitrogen), does anyone know what's involved or could reccomend anyone?

Thanks Alex

Sold
For sale Fox TALAS Float RL rear shock.

This shock is used but is in excellent near new condition. It was on my wife's bike and she hardly ever road it. It fits the EVO series K2 bikes, like 3000 4000 5000. It may fit other models as well.  Eye to Eye is 210mm x 2 inch stoke. Includes to correct size adapters to mount it on your bike. The swing arm bracket requires a small notch to make room for the air valve. Very easily performed with a round file. Cost $400 new, Asking price is $100 USD for this rare item. Shipping is not included. Item is located in the USA.

Features:
TALAS = Travel Adjustable Linear Air Spring. Meaning you can adjust the travel of the shock in 3 different preset heights in 1/4" increments by turning a switch
R= Rebound adjustable with the red knob
L = Lockout with the blue lever. Lock the rear for those long smooth climbs or any smooth surfaces.
Float = Air spring adjustable by using a shock pump to match rider weight and style. Shock pump is not included, it takes a standard shock pump.

Anyone in the Seattle area interested in a OZm/OZx frame? (I don't think there was any difference in the frame - is that correct?)

it's been a garage potato for years now and my back is now officially cooked, so putting it back together isn't really an option.

I don't have the rear shock (but I understand that's a change out - I had a Helix on it for a while), the BB (xt, square spindle) feels OK

the frame didn't have a lot of miles on it (it was at the twilight of my riding), but it is a few years old (obviously)

I really don't know what it's worth, it's a cool frame, but just a frame and I hate to see garage potatoes

I'd adopt your Oz here in Tacoma but the stable is full to overflowing already.  Pictures?

There's a 953 for sale in the Brampton area (Ontario, Canada).
Thought I'd let others know!

Shameless plug for Proflex 750 I am selling on ebay. It's been much loved but has to go for reasons of space - would rather it went to someone who appreciates it!

sorry for not leaving that piece of info (also, didn't want to glog the forum with pics...unless it's appropriate - I can certainly get pics to folks)


Virtual seat-tube  (c-t) 20.5"

ETT is abt 22"

had it new and built it up, but life got in the way as it tends to (now, it looks like I might have a slipped disk -- in my back, not the bike! :D  :(  )
