Really neat frame
with lots of interesting details. The top tube curves at the seat
tube juncture and splits into
wishbone stays that are looped at the drop
outs. The elevated stays and the seat tube are both sleeved with
larger diameter tubing. The front derailleur cable just exits from
the open tube and wraps around a pinch-type bottom bracket shell.
This bike features an original Rock Shox RS-1 and most of the Deore DX
group (one below XT). The finish is a nice
black powder coat with
a glitter
that fades from gold to blue (hopefully the pictures will pick
up the effect). We can get this or similar powder-coating done for
you, call for details. If anyone know of a source for decals,
please let me know.
