Bontrager Race '91 - Build Thread

[Carge]

So the Bonty and I are off to see Wadsy tomorrow - and cabling it up is the objective - and a bit of a natter and a cuppa or three

So in the dark recesses of my mind I seem to recall something specific about the Bontrager cable routing?

I've looked at the @sinnerman Experimental thread - but I thought there was a diagram - and I can't see the photos in the Archive clearly.

So can someone ( @slackboy @benjabbi @sinnerman @Once A Hero @pw_pw_la) point me in the right direction - please nicely

Thanks in advance guys

You bl**dy superstar - cheers Phil

My pleasure dude.

I mean, all I did was get it from someone else on here!

@Once A Hero maybe?

That's how I was going to suggest to do it!

Big thanks to Wads for cabling up the Bonty yesterday - while I Scotch-padded some rims for him.
Good to have a catch up and quality cave time

All the outers cut and fitted as per the gospel according to KB
Everything on the frame is only nipped up to hold it in place at the mo - so it'll be easy to remove what I need to for a good polish to get that purple shining.

The gold SRP bolts are going - anyone have a source of plain black chainring bolts and M900 RD Hangar and jockey bolts?

Great to hear and can't wait to see it.

I think ours will look very similar, like twins internationally separated at birth, once finished.

Especially because I plan to reproduce the same colour decals you have on yours for mine!

Then again, I guess all Bontragers (when built thoughtfully/correctly ) look like twins separated at birth!

Who are you getting to do them?
Gil at RetroDecals probably has them on file ready to go.
