Alex with the bike 7444 - going on limb and probably missing pages in the Book. first page I am seeing is 75028 which I would bet was June of 1974. I would say that was one of the first bikes made in Tucson at the shop on Prince Road.

Swongman - if this frame is a 19.5 inch, then I just found it. Number 75043 made in July of 1974. Vitus tubing and prugnat lugs. name on the book was Woo.

Been off the C&V for a few days, and thank for this information. Can you define a Super Cross? I want to put that information on the Classic Rendezvous site.

Thanks!
