'95 Ibis mojo handjob Renovation

[Prodigal Son]

If you are looking at period then M910 would be the choice.

I’ve had XTR M950 groupset on previous builds. Would it be wrong to put m900 on it? Not had that before.

It will only be wrong if you don´t ride it.

 

[Prodigal Son]

Didn’t arrive until ‘96. But would suit it very well. Until you consider brakes...

Truth is v brakes stop better. Ugly? yes.

Truth is v brakes stop better.

Agreed.

Ugly? yes.

Disagree. XTR M950/1/2 are among my favourite ever brakes. Effective and stylish. But they have no place on a bike with an iconic canti stop.

It will only be wrong if you don´t ride it.

That’s very true. All my bikes get ridden.

Yeah black and Ti is the only right combination. Any other combination is for sexual deviants

Ti and silver polished.

Black is soooooo 2019.

If you don't use a handjob stop on a bike that comes with one you are committing the most cardinal of sins.

V-brakes nowhere near this, please!

M900 would be nice on this. I'd run the whole group with an M950 RD in the back, so you can pretend you're a NORBA racer trying out a prototype mid-season!

I'd recommend v braking it or considering a disc brake adapter just to escape the drudgery of cantilever

 

[pw_pw_la]

You're really pushing my buttons now @Imlach!

I wrote that reply specifically for you brother

I agree with you anyhow, you always know that, so consider me the annoying gremlin, much love

Love this thanks! Will be running m900!
