JT Freestyle
Another fine product from Torker in 1982 as the cruiser division was now standardized on 24's vs. 26" cruisers.
Factory Pro Clint Miller told Torker to "Shorten up the rear end, go with quicker steering, and you'll have a winner!" "We just asked ourselves what would we want if we were racing 13 - 14 cruiser or 15 - 25 class. We figured what they did and didn't like about our 26 and other 24's on the market and went to work."
