Specialized UmmaGumma tires.

Absolute love for the grey UmmaGummas! My favorite retro tires.

Beautiful bike. It will need pedals fitting though to be eligible

I'll post my Rocky here as well, but I don't think it'll have much chance against the 2 Ultimate's

Yes, I need to delete the listing though, I've added a middleburn chainset and ridden it a bit and its too nice to sell!

Something a little bit different.
I'd been been searching for a Crosstrac Sonoma for 15 years+ having lusted after one back in 93/94. Finally found one off a fellow RBer .

Hopefully I've done the bike justice. Way ahead of it's time in 1993 - though it 'borrowed' heavily from Reisinger's Mountain Cycle San Andreas - another favourite bike of mine.

But I love the fact it has presta valves front and rear for setting your shock pressure and 4" travel front and rear - which in 1993 was HUGE!

After the Manitou, the San Andreas and now this Crosstrac - my next build will be a painted bike that doesn't require hours and hours of polishing
