The Pro Raider

Don't get me wrong I love Hutchs and I rode the heck out of Raider but the ad was deceiving. The forks in the two page spread were true Hutch forks with the 90 degree bend and the milled crown below the bearing race. The frame also looked to have the narrow 1" diameter top tube. The Raider had a much thicker top tube, was stickered with the identifying "Pro Raider" downtube sticker (not the * Hutch * sticker like in the ad.) When I saw it I honestly thought it would be the Pro or Expert frame with low end components that I could replace as I got the funds and bring it up to a regular Pro Racer. It wasn't anything Hutch. only the grips and seat clamp.
