Re: Here's my '91. It's battle-scarred for sure, but the parts are all in excellent shape. Well, not counting the fork, it's just for show. These ATAK hubs and Ringle skewers feel a little out of place to me, but they are shiny! I have a couple sets of barends that could look good...

Re: This is a real beauty, really well done! Do you know what kind of frame tubes are used here? I recently picked up a frame with chainstays exactly like this - I think they're Columbus?

Somehow I feel like I worked on this bike. Did you buy it from someone in Edmonton? We had a guy come in once with some RaceFace cranks he had just gotten as warranty replacements, and a Moulden frame in this colour, that I built for him as a single speed. Also kinda crazy; I think I picked up...

So here's my 1988 Rocky Mountain Avalanche. Given how many times I've checked those old Rocky catalogs, I don't know how '87 got stuck in my head - it just doesn't work like it used to I guess. Maybe the Kuwahara is also an '88; http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewto ... p;t=276088 This...

I actually picked up this bike two summer ago, but never got around to posting anything. But there's another that got posted recently so I figured it was time. Here it as delivered; These are hardly common, but I've never seen one with the BB junction and top tube painted like this one...

Are you still after this? I can grab it for you if it's still available.

That's the one I had! It had the original fork in purple, and may have had a steel Syncros stem. I have an '88 now. We're supposed to get above zero tomorrow, so maybe I'll break it out for some pics. Teaser for now;

Two things I love; 1. Resurrecting old threads. 2. Someone that pulls Specialized parts off a bike because they don't like Sinyard. Great bike!

Re: Kona Caldera 1997 - unicorn scenes My apologies for a bit of hi-jacking here, but was this the end of U.S. production for the Caldera? And for that matter, all steel Konas? From all the info here, and in other threads, I don't see who has built the '98s and '99s. I'm asking because I...

Great post! I tell ya - I wouldn't have let that Calfee tandem get more than an arms length away at any time. As long - looong - time resident of Edmonton, I can confirm that getting out and moving to Vancouver is a very good call. I'm not surprised at all that they thought you were crazy for...

A Koga-Miyata apparently; http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Koga-Miyata-carb ... SwAKxWYMKH

This bike has a pretty scary bunch of parts on it, but what is really interesting is the fork. I don't think I've ever seen a curved blade Headshok before. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Cannond ... Swl9BWNCv1

Re: Re: I'm going the same way. I just don't ride my bikes at all, so it's gotten very hard to rationalize owning more than one. I'm paring it back to three that I just can't part with; '91 Blizzard - my favorite bike ever '05 Blizzard - 20th anniversary edition '98 Dekerf - it's a...

If you'd like to start from scratch - literally - I'll sell you my frame.

I don't understand the hatred for these tires.

That is a bad ass bike - well done! How much does it weigh?

This is a fun thread, and I think this is a good spot to jump in. I'm giving the Dialled Alpine Mk II 10/10 because it just looks right. Also, it's 853, just like my Rocky...

Re: Cool bike, looks to be in great shape too. Bikepedia doesn't go back far enough - only to 1993. I had a Bridgestone in '90 with those same fragile Shimano shifters. Pretty cool to find a bike that still has them intact - I broke two sets of the front shifter...

I just noticed that the shipping charges for me would be $19.47. That's amazing - most frames I see the shipping is over $100. Pro's Closet has a couple frames I may have already bought if the shipping didn't tack another 33% on the price.

Cool and rare machine... http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Ultra-rare-1992- ... 3d0221c91c
