This thing is bonkers! The carbon squished through its Ti garters is nuts! Great build.

Re: Re: Yeah, was going to have a custom Ti set made but ended up getting these Milhouse bars when the first batch landed in the UK. They match the steerer length of my set of RC31's perfectly. Your Stooge looks rad!

Re: Fitted shorter stem and rotated bars backwards for less reach; feels more chilled out to ride.

Thanks for all the white hot tips! I’m also looking to ask Santa for crispy fresh lumens this chrimbo.

Re: Re: Thanks! Stridsland’s really doing it for the retro MTB conversion scene. Would be swell to ride in Epping with you! Will keep an eye on your Hei Hei build.

Re: Another Kona Hei Hei **pre-build** Nice! Love a Hei Hei, yours looks in really good nick. Can’t wait to see this built!

Re: 1996 Marin Team Titanium - Restomod Disc Conversion Thanks! I’m glad that the frame came bare, made me feel much better about peeling off the stickers from the RC31’s. Is your Batavus cracked or do you want to modify it? You could always post it to Limit Fab.

Wow, an absolute stunner! So good.

Re: Finished... for now. Needs a slightly shorter stem and slimmer grips.

Re: As if by magic... Disc tab done by Patrick at Limit Fabrication. Custom design to fit into the rear triangle, without the need for a brace, and a Hope 'Number 5' caliper designed for a 140mm rotor to fit a 160mm.

Having just got hold of a 1996 Marin Team Titanium frame, all I can think about is brutally defiling it with a welder. The frame is straight, dent-and-crack-free, and the perfect size. But it has long-since lost its decals, and been sprayed yellow then sanded back at some point in its life...

No worries, hope that helps. Saddleback were great on the phone, their website was showing zero stock but they had a rummage in their warehouse and found a few after I asked.

Re: I recently found myself in a similar situation and after a lot of searching and calling managed to buy a spare top race from Saddleback, if that helps. Here’s a photo of mine showing the product code:

I’m looking for a Thomson X4 stem, 50mm length, 31.8mm clamp, in black. Many thanks in advance!

I'm after a Middleburn spider for RS2/RS4 cranks, 94BCD 5-bolt. Needs to have the 4-hole mounting system, any colour considered. Many thanks!

Have a look at the Superstar Components range. Very good quality, made by them in the UK, decent price.

Incredible project, can't wait for more!
