anybody ever seen a hutch trickstar with no brake bridge? is has a round tube instead. has baseball after serial number on the inside left dropout....can post pics later. thanks

never seen such TS.
the stamped brakebridge was "the" part that made Hutch frames diffrent then others.
I know those brakebridges could bend a little after hard braking.
Maybe someone replaced it with a tube?
Love to see some pics.

I found one the same way. Round brake bridge, long frame standers under the seat (just the US models) and a baseball stamp. Must be a early Japanese model?
