1991 Rocky Mountain Hammer

[chrisv40]

Massive thanks to Fluffychicken who has had this in his garage waiting to be built ever since we picked it up three or four years ago.
It was in a bit of a state paint wise and it's forks were black.
This is it now after a full respray and new decals, thanks Gil.
Full dx groupset other than the SS7 levers.
Yet to ride it so I'll report back soon.

looking nice with the new paint.

Had me scratching my head this frame for a bit, its obviously a '91 but has later rear cable stops, no tube. For a bit i thought it might be an Equippe, with Tange tubes but not sure if they used Ritchey dropouts? I have however found a pic of a '91 Hammer with the later rear cable stops, the green one. So still confusing.

Picture of the Equippe and the green Hammer:

Yes, many Rockies ended up without the noodle in 1991, no idea why. I think it's the later models, I could post up some other pictures, Altitude included.
It is actually probably an Equipe here anyway and not a Hammer, but it was in the red colour when I bought it and when buying the decals I hadn't really look at the difference till about a day after, I only had a few years to notice ; -)
Hey ho, looks much nicer dressed up as the more familiar Hammer.
