Finally got my 2000 homegrown pro built back up after a fresh paint job,owned it from new, it’s definitely had a hard life from being used for countless xc races and 12-24hr races to a winter training bike,
It’s been surprisingly hard to find all the bits to build it back up due to over priced and poor condition parts.
I also finally found a NOS chainstay guard for it aswell that I’ve fitted since these photos were taken,
Frame has been painted molton orange (looks great in the sun) I forgot how dark the orange is compared to it’s original colour but happy with how it now looks
Spec is: Rock shox Sid Athena rep forks .10spd m895 xtr with m970 xtr v brakes,dt240 hubs on Mavic xc717rims,Thomson stem+post,easton carbon bars
A photo of when I first had it built up with its “xc race spec” back in early 2003 I think,
How it is now after a complete rebuild, still has its original tomato top cap and head tube badge and badge on the seat stay
