    Bontrager Ti Lite XL

    So Bontrager made Rock Shox fork crowns with different off set to stock RS forks. I knew this but never really looked into it. Of course this bike needs one so i jumped at the chance to buy one... with all that excitement my brains were out the window and i forgot to ask the questions that...

    Bontrager Ti Lite XL

    Right, might as well start a build thread on this one ;) I bought this on a whim a few weeks ago off a fellow Dutch retro enthousiast Dirk (who is probably on here too, just don't know his addy). Since then i learned it previously belonged to another Dutch collector -Niellesie- and was actually...

    WTB Bon Tempe restoration

    Sorry for the lack of updates, currently there is not much progress to report. I did manage to find a pair of hubs i wanted, currently only have the rear at home, front will follow later this year. They’re used but will be fine for this project. I’ve heard you can put a titanium XTR axle in...

    WTB Bon Tempe restoration

    About 2 years ago i spotted an ad on a local classified website saying “WTB 26” silver 32h rims” for sale.. Kinda weird as WTB didnt have too many rim options available in 26”, definitely not circa 2021… so i had to check it out - the ad took me to a website in Belgium and there was just a tiny...

    WTB Bon Tempe restoration

    WTB is famous for it's Rollercam brakes design (later licensed by SunTour) but those require different placement of brake bosses so not an option for a Bon Tempe frame. They also made more standard Cantilever brakes but that would require some creative solutions on a full suspension bike.. so i...

    WTB Bon Tempe restoration

    small update as things are moving but.. very slowly I found a WTB SST.98 saddle a while back. It was WTB's top of the line saddle back in the late 90's. Very nice quality as it was produced by Selle in Italy. Also pictured on a Bon Tempe in the WTB catalog from '98 so very much period correct /...

    WTB Bon Tempe restoration

    I talked to Fred and Mark at WTB but they couldnt remember what the original finish or colourcode on the frame was: quite possibly even a hard anodizing, it was applied by a sub contractor. I don’t think these frame were build in house by WTB (unlike the Phoenix). Anyway, after some...
