Hi all

i dont own a camera so phone pics only im afraid , The FSR is the bike i had bitd that i miss the most so when the chance to " take up the baton "
from Niall Unit3 on this 94 model i had to take it , it was tough moving the Bonty along but needs must
The basic spec is .
1994 s works fsr
Rock shox judy sl with coil spring innards
Fox alps 4 rear shock
Diacompe headset
Control tech stem
Hyperlite bars
Alloy seatpost 29.2 with Ti clamp bolt
Xtr m950 groupset

Re:

Hey! Nice bike.
I like everything except the m950. Did you change the rear casette to x8 ?
What is the zip tie for? Sag indicator?

Thanks i built the bike with pretty much the components i used in bitd hence the m950 , the m900 was 8 speed anyway so its an m950 cassette on the 900 hub oh and yes thats what the zip tie is , i will put an o ring on there when get round to it lol !

Ah, right. I always mix up the 950 with 951 witch is x9.

Ha ha ! its funny that the groupset has raised eyebrows
Its 2 years newer than the frame , when i build the 1995 Bontrager it replaced i used a 1991 groupset and people loved it
this retro is a fickle world lol !
Im starting to think maybe i should have gone for M900 but tbh i built this to a similar spec as the one had BITD , it was sold as a frame and fork or with a build kit and as you do i built it with what i had and upgraded to latest kit as it came along , it actually ended up with the first series blue sids on it :shock:
