Only about 75 were built originally in Fullerton, making it the most limited production frame of Torker's entire run. The modern version keeps the unique dual top tube freestyle DNA and adds modern specs: Mid BB shell, gyro tabs, and 1 1\/8\" threadless steertube with 990 fork mounts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the story of the original 1984 Torker Freestylist?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1984, the Freestylist was developed with input from Alan's BMX UK Freestyle team. Only around 75 frames were produced — fewer than almost any Torker ever made. It represents one of the earliest purpose-built freestyle geometries from any major BMX brand, predating the mainstream freestyle boom. The reissue brings this rare piece back for the first time in 40 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat geometry does the 20\" Freestylist have?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eModern freestyle geometry: 21.25\" top tube, 14.25\" chainstay, 11.625\" BB height, 75.5° head angle. Mid BB shell. Designed for flat ground, park, and ramp. The steeper head angle gives quicker, more responsive handling than a race frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the frame have gyro tabs?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
