Additional Information

The 2nd generation Senior Pro was basically the 1st gen but with the leverage upgrade on the rear dopouts (Basically the dropout was welded lower down on the loop which generated a higher rider height and stability improvement).

Both generations of the Senior Pro framesets went onto be used for their respective Harry Leary signature model generations. There is no difference whatsoever apart from the smoke finish.

Released as an update/replacement to the original Large Pro with updated geometry in mid 1981, frameset was full chromoly. This was the frameset that was used to develop the Harry Leary Turbo and available up to (approx June/July) 1982.

Available as frame and forks only but with an optional 1pc or 3pc kit.
