2002 Giant Team DH. Built from scratch

[BFG Bronco]

Here's one of my current projects. Bought the the frame a couple of years ago and have slowly been building it up. Takes ages to track down the right parts, as you all probably know, BB's and cranks being one of the hardest. Don't even get me started on chain devices.
Here's the frame after I completely took it apart to replace all the pivot bearings and de sticker it etc.

Tracked a couple of pairs of these down last year (also have a pair of Mr Dirts for another project) and put them on. This is a rough build up minus brakes, grips and proper shifter cabling.
I'm doing the the brakes at the moment.
Will take some more pictures over the weekend.

Spent today tinkering and fettling.
Got the front brake all set up and bled.

Cabled up the rear mech with some nice lookalike braided cable.

The XTR mech is a short cage one which was on all my DH rigs I had when racing.

The MRP chain device is a lovely bit of kit which was a bit fiddly to set up but works fantastically well

that'd be awesome to shred stairs and terrorize pedestrians! hookworms are fun, gives it a really supermoto look, especially without the fork guards.
