Bump, down to £170

Gutted to see this go. Was a dream project to build my ideal teen me bike. Has marks, it's over 23 years old. But decent for its age I think. A bit of tyre grinding on the wishbone/seatstay area into the metal. Some decals have been kinda filled in with a carbon like decal. Very hard to find...

I believe these are 1998. Overall good condition for age. They seem to go up and down fine.They had some horrific Monster Energy drink stickers on them so you will need to remove the residue slightly. A hair over 21cm steerer. No brake bosses. I do have these somewhere AND replacements Decals...

Gutted to be getting rid of this as had a dream build planned. Description as title. USA Made. Tried to capture scuffs, paint work, etc. Obviously not everything but you get an idea of the condition of paint and decals. Note, no disc mount or drop out mech hanger thing. The latter can be found...

Gil doesn’t have the mk1 decals. Seems recreating them could be not so easy. Would he interested in getting a few together to chips in for the creation fee if anyone is up for it? I’m going to submit pics of the decals of two frames in different states

I've just had a pair of classic orange Z1 Bam forks arrive that are in fairly good nick, but would be great to touch up a few bits. Has anyone come across a similar colour? Don't see many orange cars on the road!

Good to know. If I can just run a single ring with no guide and the mech/ring will do the job, that's ideal. What cassette/mech/hub/ring are you running?

Been look at forks for my MK1 Chameleon and seeing what was around then. I actually had a pair of these about 10 years ago. Looking at Manitou's line up back then, why would Palmer have what was essentially a signature XC fork over lets say the X-Vert?

Looking for some advice on era correct chain devices, tempted by an slalom MRP but kinda heavy. Were there any decent chain guides at the time without the plates? I remember DMR's being really bad.

Frame has arrived! Love the lines/angles. Paint is kinda bad. Decals even worse. Waiting to see if Gil can do the decals specific to this version and thinking of a powder coat. I like idea of sticking to black.

Don't suppose you still have these?

Pics incoming. Building from frame up so looking to get a 98/99 era build parts wise. Paul Smith had a black Chameleon in MBUK back in the day in an article about using speed bumps to practice. I always wanted something similar back then but my 19" Kona Hahanna was my only realistic option. I'm...

Bump!

I have a itch to scratch giving a retro spin on a modern for and will soon be getting a hardtail powder coated alongside some fork legs. Has anyone here stripped a MTB crown to metal? Can it be done easily by the powder coating using their usual methods?

There was an article about riding in car parks and using speed bumps to boost off. Paul Smith had a great little black Santa Cruz Chameleon.. Would love a scan of it if anyone has it!

Looking for a modern 27.5 trail tyre for my SC 5010. It's a bit a subtle nod to JMC's bike and the late 90s in general (IRC etc). Just putting my influences into a modern bike. Most of the skin walls I'm looking at, the skin wall part seems to go up the tyre too much.. Maxxis for instance...

Looking to get someone who is familiar and maybe has fonts / illustrator files for the mid 90s spesialized font that was on the M2 to make me a decal set for another brand (a modern bike to JMC). Let me know!

After scan of an MBUK, It had Paul Smith riding in a car park doing stylish jumps over speed bumps on a black Santa Cruz Chameleon. Mainly after that article or any pics of that bike!
