Re: Re: Not every race. 40 hours was his limit.

Very Very Very Very Get one anyway

Re: That's a cool frame, and from the looks of it, the build is going to be awesome as well. FWIW, I'm thinking 95

Re: A collection second to only maybe the MBHOF and Mombat. Arguable, even. And they all get ridden

Re: Cool and interesting frame. Seat tube isn't sleeved and the guides aren't riveted. Pretty early to have the "Pro" designation.

Re: In

Re: Great price with Frame fork and stem included

Re: Campy dropouts pretty much clinches it being a Yeti fork

Ahh. Ok. I missed that detail, and yeah, it's def a factory repair. The bikes that had the seat collars as an OG spec weren't sleeved and were 93->. FWIW, I'd consider this a 1990. Beautiful repaint, and an amazing build. It's not as wild west as legend has it. Yes, early, early bikes (FROs)...

Thanks! That's interesting. Can you tell me what info you have that says this is a 92? I ask, because Ultimate serial numbers are surprisingly reliable for dating, and I know U1419 is September 1991. That suggests yours shouldbe about 1990 with a second gen headbadge

Re: Super nice Felix! I just finished mine. Can't wait to ride it! Any chance you'd share the serial # from the BB shell?

Re: Nicely built. Like the ride description too. Its exactly how I feel about mine. Curious what the serial number is? Is that original paint? Thanks!

Nice Andy, I''ll be in contact

Sorry, I just took that one. He raced it at the 2013 Iron Horse with us in the vintage category

Re: Re: No, it's #2. Serial number is 002. Built late 87. He specifically requested cantilevers. I think the frame in the auction is even later, like 91. My 1990 has the early version of the chainstays with the extended steel "Lug", not the updated ones that offered better clearance and a...

Re: If anyone here wants this, PM me about overseas shipping

Re: There's so much misinformation in that ad that it's painful to read. Here's Epic #2 which belongs to Ed Zink. Just because it's cool :)

Re: Re: Hey Pierre! Early to me would indicate a Merlin frame, which would have Merlin dropouts. The ones on this bike are clearly Sandvik. A Merlin frame would also have a pressfit BB and a TBG decal.
