This will likely be my worst build thread in terms of content. The bike is actually fully completed. I took lots of nice shots of the build than lost them in an iPod update ... oh well.
I bought this frame on here on impulse. It was a good deal and I was already frustrated with the sizing on my 1991 Blizzard ... this sort of fills the void. PS ... I still have a fully restored '91 Blizzard frame (L) if anyone has a good swap for me.
Anyway ... here she was. The frame was damage free, but rough and faded. That's a Syncros noodle stem and green Tange Strut I had kicking around.
Back to Quy I went with a new powdercoat project. The transition between the black flake and pearl white is a decal so I had him mask it off and not worry about a blend.
The frame came out a bit more disco at first. The fork and stem are done in black flake to match. Its really pretty.
I had a spare 27.0 post in the bin and that's another NOS XT 735 headset I had ... almost out of those :?
She's complete. I am going to do a photoshoot shortly to show it off.
