Wow, that was very quick turnaround for a project. Glad to see you're slumming it in the Valley with this nice weather.

Very pretty early Attitude. In BC too!
I was surfing FB 4 days ago and found an Attitude came up for sale in Victoria, listed for a couple weeks before I saw it. I contacted them even though I am out of the country until March. Got my dad to go inspect it. Bought it!
It's the 91 Dolomite colour scheme - exactly the same model as I bought new in 1990. It need some work though, like repainting the stem, and m730 brakes, 91 7sp rapidfire, 737 spd, vintage tires and such to bring it back to 91 spec. Came with vintage Bullseye cranks and Roox post I might just leave on the bike. I won't even get to see the bike in person until spring, can't wait! (sorry for the bad pics, I was not there to take them - ugh). Seller seemed to have good knowledge about the bike.

Great score! A few of us locally on the mainland have seen that one for a while, I'm glad to see someone on the forum nabbed it, Bullseye cranks!
I love the Dolomite paint scheme, hopefully you have success matching the MC1 handlebar/stem green when you repaint

yeah my dad says he has a local bike painter who might be able, but I have used DeKerf in Richmond before and they are ace at reproducing colours. Or I just order an OEM green one on ebay lol.
