Hi this is my Bontrager Race.
Frame bought in November 1996.
From Julie's cycles in Leicester.
It is one of the last with geometry
Adjusted for suspension forks.
I paid £400 which was cheep at the time.
It is in the original blue metallic paint.
But I foolishly removed the top sticker
When it got tatty.
This is a build that has evolved over the years and is not period correct throughout.
But is a very functional steed IMO.
Marzocchi air oil MX comp 1" threadless
Chris King soto voce headset.
Shimano LX & XT groupset.
Mis-match rims atec and Fir Impess
As the rear impress split years back
and I couldn't find another
Front brake hope MM 4
Rear brake XTR v type, parallel action.
Anyway you can judge for yourself from the pics.
