What an insane collection!

That's what's posted for sale. £70. (not mine)

I'm pretty sure the guy who modded this downhill rig back then wasn't pondering much on the state of the collectors market 30 years in the future, he just wanted a stiffer frame ;)

Wow. Very nice bike.

Quick mockup

Finally found time to resume the project. The clear coat was literally baked in in some parts. No amount of paint stripper could get through it. Didn't have much choice but to dremel everything clean. Polished the headtube/downtube junction to see how it looks...

He has a pair of Paul levers for 100$ more than Paul sells them...

Finished cleaning up the fork. Liberal amount of acetone required. Waiting for a fresh set bumpers from Fguki.

Ha, keen eye Matti! I did in fact buy it from a guy that lives in Ottawa. Made the drive a couple of weeks ago from Sherbrooke( Qc). Can't say if the bike was originally sold from Kuntsadt, but I remember he mentionned that this was the shop that maintained it.

Like Zonoskar mentionned, it's not patina, it's just clear coat chipping away. It looks neglected more than anything else.

Thanks for the kind offer but I ordered a set from Gil last week.

Well you do you my friend, I dont see any fun in either of these propositions ;)

Stripping process. Much more arduous than I expected. Thought it would peel right off given the actual state of the coating. Not so. Not sure how it goes in other countries, but here the strong and effective (but nasty for mommy nature) paint stripper is not sold anymore. What we have availlable...

@zonoskar; really lovely build with the red straight bladed fork and the Spinergy's! @vtwinvince; appart from the coat desintegrating, the frame itself is in top condition. No cracks or even dings, only a few scuffs here and there. I'm aiming for a brushed or dull aluminium finish, not mirror...
