Really nice!

Late on the party, but very nice Raleigh USA MTi2000 from 1993 that you've put your hands on, @fguki. If you had some spare time, would you please look at the diameter of your seatpost, as it still the OEM Tioga DL2000 one, and provide us with the information to this forum? This would help...

Naive question there: will the welding repair stands forever? I was told that to prevent further tube cracking, you have to drill or cut the neighborhood of the crack to stop its propagation. Is this what Dan did when you said that he "v-cuts" (what's that?) the crack? And then filling the gap...

Doh! All this already discussed here. And I ever commented back in the time 🙃

From the catalogue pictures, the finish is gloss in 1992-94. 1995 is missing. Starting in 1996, the finish seems satin. From this thread [1], the early ones were made of Columbus Nivacrom and more prone to crack than the True Temper OX3 ones. Presumably, the gloss ones are the Colombus flavour...

The only parts that needed to be replaced were the elastomer stacks that I've purchased from Suspension Fork Parts: https://www.suspensionforkparts.net/eshop/mountain-cycle/suspenders-system-inverted-ii.html

Something that I've undone, in fact. I bought it as-is, dressed like a Ferrari. But I don't think there ever was a connection between Ferrari and San Andreas. The Selle Italia Novus (Ferrari engineering) is legit, though.

Thanks @Silverfish. Well, no problem here with the Mongo headset. So don't know what to say :confused:. Do you have a rebuild thread of your Sanny? BTW, the link to the Yeti C26 in your signature is dead.

... a connection with Mountain Cycle? Sure: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/92-mountain-cycle-san-andreas-resurrection.454736/post-3338029 🤣

Hopefully you'll be able to host a copy here, as I'm not subscribed to FB :P

Hi, Is someone able to identify the MAVIC-equipped Clark Kent in the bottom right photo of the magazine scan I posted a month ago [1]? It was showcased at Interbike 91 in Anaheim, USA. Thanks! [1]...

Looks like we even have a fellow RBer onboard: http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=24936 Too bad that all the image links are dead.

So besides the Greg Lemond Titanium MTB I was linking to earlier, here are the only two other bikes "factory"-equipped with MAVIC off-road components that I could find in my archives. 1°/ A Clark Kent (that I failed at identifying the model) at Interbike '91 show (bottom right photo): 2°/ A...
