1991 Rocky Mountain Altitude, Finally Finished

[racer x]

Re: Re:

Changed up the Altitude a bit!! Swapped out the Syncros cranks with XTR, Nuke Proof wheels with XTR, Critical Racing brakes with XTR, Syncros stem and hang doggy to Syncros stem with noodle (I like them a lot better, but it's a little short), Syncros titanium bar to Syncros Aluminum, and got rid of the red/black tires for some Ritchey blackwalls.

Oh yeah, I tried a NOS red Flite that I had lying around (just put it on quickly, that's why it is pointing down so much), but didn't like the look, so I put the black one back on and it is staying.

That's is so nice mate I agree mate black Flite looks way better looks awesome man

i liked your prev build (aside from the tyres) and didn't think it needed a change, but it still looks great this way too! if you did want to keep the red flite, i'd suggest red grips to tie it to the front. but if you're keeping black grips then yes, black flite is better!

Fantastic build! Stick with the black Flite, the red one pushes it ever-so-slightly into Ronald McDonald™ territory.

Beautiful bike! The full XTR and blackwall tires round it out nicely. Both your Titanium and Altitude look like they just came off the showroom floor! I wish I could say that for my Rockies...all mine well used and abused (so far).

Re:

Thanks guys for the comments, I appreciate it!!

Trust me, my Altitude was used and abused a lot too, until I sent it to Dekerf for some TLC. I think it was time after 20+ years. Below are some pics of the frame before it was painted.
