Update, sourced a mint set of Powerlite Xpert Bars and a Mint black Tufnek stem. If anyone can source me a GT Epoch headset that would be great. I have given up trying to source history as the people involved with Whitebear BITD are as scarce as the forks I need. lol.
Im building it as I would if I were to race it, basically the best race parts I can get from that period. Some advice on which brake system to run... Im toying with either ACS BOA or Odyssey Pitbull. The hubs more than likely will be GT Power series Hubs in chrome or white, NOS or mint as.
The idea is slowly coming together, White, Gold, Black.

Ads, I just sold two Pitbull calipers. One polished and one Black. Both in good cond too.
They would be my choice. I love them.
Make sure you get the whole caliper with all the parts too.

Well here are some parts that arrived for the bear. I got a set of PitbullII brakes for it, they are closer to the year required than I's and some pics of bars, stem and forks. I have an Epoch headset on the way as well.

cool Ads, dunno if i have anything you need but I'll sort through those couple of items I showed you the other day and see if there is anything, there is a ACS BOA, but you going with pitbulls is better.

Newest additions to the the White Bear accessories list. Arrived today, the condition is absolutely mint. Looks like its never been worn let alone raced in.
Big thanks to Waza007 for the heads up.

Well its all coming together slowly, Ive got some profile retro cranks on the way (#68), Oddyssey slick cable, Oddyssey Posi stop seat clamp, Suntour MP1000 pedals and a Revcore straight pole and new decal for the Powerlite bars. All I got to do now is get the frame forks and bars powdered by Roberto and wait for Pete Porker to get back to my about decals and Im set. BTW pics will be added as the bits arrive.
