Re:

I like it. The judy dh make a pleasant alternative and it's a great fork. The geometry wont change too much and when ive done similar builds has made the bikes more relaxed and playful, more suited to todays riding

I do think you have to be careful with suspension forks with more travel than the frame is designed for but in this case the frame still seems to have bb drop with the Judys so should be fine.

Thanks for all the comment, but please also read the text....

I DO have a Ritchey fork available and a Salsa stem is on it's way!
I prefer some suspension and the 1995 DH is only 63/75mm.

In 1993 these frames came with a choice of 5 forks. Two of them were suspension forks. This DH has a bit more travel, but it does fit the frame.

Do you have that price list for 1991 as well? I am looking for it.

That's very nice.
Get some crazy Jellybeans or Rasta Flags painted on there!

The red is Humbrol Gloss 19
Can't find the other pots that I used on my Ala Carte, they're buried in the shed somewhere.
I'll PM you as soon as I find them
