    1991 Yeti Ultimate build thread

    I love those tires, the coolest I own in my opinion. Comparing the Grove and its paint to this Yeti Ultimate is an apple to an orange. Black or Grey housing is what I have planned right now. Don't think the black saddle will make the final cut. Unless you're in your mid 50's and actually...

    1991 Yeti Ultimate build thread

    Thank you. I wanted to try the Psychos first, as they're Tioga. They might be a little wide though as the front D fit is really tight. I also try not to keep just black/gum tires on my bikes and have a variety in the stable. Have some nice black IRC Piranha's I'll try on a little later in the...

    1991 Yeti Ultimate build thread

    I picked them up at my local bike shop. I can’t see a logo on them but the color is a perfect match to the neon yellow. I picked up some nice vintage Vetta ones that match the color as well but they’re too big.

    I finished touching up the paint on the frame and put on the new decals from Gil. Made sure the cook bro cranks fits as well as the front derailleur. Front Mavic wheel cleaned up and trued.

    My 1993 Tioga Disc Drive rear wheel

    After I received the wheel, it became clear pretty quickly that getting this very expensive old wheel into riding condition was going to be over my head. I spoke to the seller again and she ended up connecting me to John H. the original Tioga Sponsorship/Marketing Director who managed the wheels...

    My 1993 Tioga Disc Drive rear wheel

    As far as I am concerned, the Tioga Disc Drive rear wheel is one of the most iconic items of our pre 1997 MTB world. I've wanted one for years but could never come close to affording one as the prices have sky rocketed. Then in December one popped up on eBay from a US based seller. It was not in...
