1990 YETI F.R.O.

Thanks guys, I saw those on eBay. I know they're fairly rare, but I really couldn't bring myself to pay £100 for a pair! I'll keep my eyes peeled for another single black one.

Black ODI Attacks showed up from Wiggle this morning! Will get these fitted tonight....



I have both a normal Selle Italia Turbo and a Selle Italia Turbo 'Special' (Like the one below) on the way.... which shall I fit?! Not sure about the GOLD bits on the 'Special', but they might go with the Syncros shim and the 'XT' text on the mechs!



OPINIONS PLEASE!

Here are some group photos of the parts gathered so far......

Now that's a nice table you've got there Ben! Very nice build. I realy like the black XT parts.

Cheers,
Will

Thanks mate! Hoping to get 'phase I' of this build finished by the weekend!

Tonight I rushed home and fitted the black ODI Attack grips and the Shimano chain! I think the grips look much better..... Getting close now!!

great to see this nearly done ben, i have to admit this looks fantastic
i had a similar build lined up (as you know i had,still do have 90% of the parts in the shed)
all i was going to do was re paint the frame.

but am glad you didnt as i think this looks better with all the black parts on it.
am really glad its gone to a good home and your enjoying everything about the build
and the excitement when the postie arrives with a eagarly anticipated part!

you must be itching to throw your leg over it!
