Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Pinterest Bluesky Threads I love riding this, plus its very lightweight which is nice, but was $250 a bit much for this? also, dont mind the taped up grips, they were a bit melted xP by ImpossibleJelly3838 Bicycling Biking Cycling
Life-Sun8620 on November 13, 2025 8:30 pm I’d say, learn how to work on that entire bike, because there ain’t a shop out there that’ll take that on.
SnackFlag on November 13, 2025 8:42 pm Pretty cool wall-hanger, but good luck finding elastomers for the fork and rear shock. Looks like they’ve totally disappeared.
Zenigata on November 13, 2025 8:55 pm It should ride better if you replace the elastomer (rubber) springs for the front and rear suspension. Check the linkages for slop because if they’re worn out it might be hard to find replacement parts.
ineptsidekick on November 13, 2025 9:11 pm sick bike, I would happily pay 250 for the novelty of owning it.
gregn8r1 on November 13, 2025 9:15 pm It’s cool, but you’ve spent a lot of money on a project bike- the suspension very clearly needs a rebuild.
kubatyszko on November 13, 2025 9:28 pm Nice. You need to replace the elastomers, these are about $60 a set – front and back.

Holy cow what is that

Congratulations on your new ride. Are you going to name it?

Classic – this is a mid 90’a Proflex 954
It does look cool! I got a proflex 555 on the way
“very lightweight”
Compared to what?

I hope you enjoy the adventure! Stay safe out there!

Looks funky. How does it ride?
