    Steering Geometry

    AMO, It's been repainted silver frame and the tank has been stripped. However under the tank it is still green, dont know if its the original green or not. It's going to have its dints knocked out next week.

    Thanks Guy's, I agree the Ossa is a lovely bike as it is. However I'm 6ft 3" and have been riding the bike for a couple of months as standard. I want to iron out a few of the niggles I have with it, one of those is getting around tight sections on the steering lock. I think there are two trains of thought here - 1) Restore her back to original - I understand the thinking but this isn't me. 2) Trick her up - I'm afraid I'm the trick her up kind. Mick (Andrews) is currently riding a tricked up Ossa 350, it is one of the most beautiful bikes I've ever seen and rides better than most modern bikes. I suppose if anybody is allowed to trick up this iconic bike it's the man himself. Enjoying the banter, My bike is a TR77 Tgh30

    Thanks Fivemeister, Yeh, I have seen them but wanted to do it myself, thinking of adding a small piece to the top section to steepen the angle. Tim

    Steering Geometry

    Hey Guy's, Just got myself a ossa 250 MAR after spending the last 30 years riding currenty bikes (fancied a project). However, I want to trick it up for a more modern riding style (move footrests down a fraction and tighten up the steering geometry. I'm a good rider and not bothered about class entry will be riding it in what ever trial. Has anybody done it to a MAR any pics you can share. Thanks in advance. Tim
