    Clark Kent Frame ;)

    They state that it is 20" from center of BB to TOP of seat tube...really a 18"?

    Another boring Yeti Ultimate :)

    deny as you will, but that frame represents some of the cooler parts of this whole golden/silver age of MTB attention. A mag that made the sport finally legit made an in-article challenge, and Yeti stepped up to the plate and kicked it out!(see vid)...

    Ringle/TNT/Hershey/Answer/ControlTech/ETC...

    one auction was pulled by Ebay because there were other company names in the title- actually didn't know you couldn't do that! Haven't sold stuff in a while I suppose. I added a few items also if anyone here is interested and I have fixed the title in the TNT rear hub- but had to be re listed...

    For Sale: 1994 Manitou HT restored - bright red

    I have had a nice 94' for a couple years now and I do push it hard on that thing from time to time. No cracks yet- I am 170 lbs. Full suspension though- I will cry when it cracks one day..... http://www.robellion.com/manitou.html

    Cool Wall -> Mountain Biking

    I remember why I thought it was cool, besides the fact that it was a freakin blast to ride an oversized BMX bike with gears on a single track trail- it was a rebel sport back then. Our gang didn't normally wear "cycle clothes" like lycra and such (one did and heard about it!), and it was all...

    AC cranks 'AC2'

    Hi- actually, AC still sells them. I bought a pair about 2 years ago, I think they only carry black and red- though they might have mentioned blue. I like the cranks, they are stiff and light. These were the forged cranks that came after their Hextreme Cranks- which they now only sell for BMX...

    Zaskar Re Issue - NOS Nice

    Hi all- In my opinion the reason these didn't sell well is because they received bad reviews early on about shoddy craftsmanship and the likes. Combine that with the fact that they were spec'd with integrated headset tubes just kind of killed it for some of the nostalgic and smarter buyers. I...

    Precision Billet front mech

    Seller doesn't have the shim set. Only in 1 3/8" or 34.9mm. Forgot to ask him what chain ring set it is for- didn't these come either standard or compact? Precision Billet should be on the cool wall.

    1991 Neglected PA Yeti Ultimate

    Nick- You have some ferrules for sale, are they for my Yeti? or did they just use standard braze-ons for that year? When I got the bike, all of the ferrules were aftermarket purple standard ones. They seemed kind of loose within the cable stops...... :?

    1991 Neglected PA Yeti Ultimate

    Nick, thank you for the pictures- I will indeed ask Frank if he will perform the factory mod he did back in the day. Looks good- plus, you say it will be 31.8 at the top of the collar after the mod eh? Would it be wrong to have the mod done like yours but without the braze-on? so I could utilize...

    1991 Ultimate from Poughkeepsie-the story-

    Whoops- sorry, meant to put a link to the original thread myself. Thanks for that. Seller also said he is still sitting on the original cable stops, cooks caps and paperwork from the original sale, and will get me those items....maybe....? Anyway, I agree he should have been more honest about...

    1991 Ultimate from Poughkeepsie-the story-

    Hi all- I know the early ending of the auction caused a stir with some potential buyers and possibly even some board members here. It happened like this- During the first auction, I was in contact with the seller but made no offer as I wanted to get more details and see more pics before I was...

    HOLY GRAIL! (C-26)

    The fork he was selling was from another vintage Yeti (but we all knew that anyway I guess) But here is some dialogue he and I had about that frame and the fork I won. He never disclosed his name though. Very interesting stuff: "I worked at YETI for a number of years, was told Johnny T. rode...
