December Bike Of The Month

[rumpfy]

how about a fillet brazed ritchey?team comp with a nice thermos

MMMMMMMMMMMMM flask coffee - beats starbucks anyday

jeeze, looks like i stand no chance with this crowd...

i'd add more pics but i dont wanna get yelled at.

Bit like....ahem, the Vintage Retro Classic Photo Gallery of MTBR

1) A nice clean photograph of your vintage, retro, or classic MTB. Preferably a full bike, drive side photograph.
2) Try and include or estimate the year along with bike make and model
3) If you have the time, spec out the bike so others can enjoy your hard work. You can use the list below as a template.

I just like the pics myself whether they are of parts, non drive side or on the trail . If I wanna know what a part on a bike is, I'll ask.

I hate rules too :roll:

There are a lot of rules I have to enforce, and some I get to.

Sorry, but a bunch of crappy, out of focus, poorly framed pictures followed by limited info...makes for a sucky gallery.
Who wants to sift through all of that?


How is that different than having to post your bike in the 'readers rides' forum here w/ full description before being allowed to post it in BoTM?

My vote gotes to the Cannondale....for the Brookes saddle.

the klunker has a B72 (dated 1975 no less!!)...or is it the color of that B17 that gets ya?

1991 Trimble

Well this will possibly be my only time to enter this competition as you all know my bikes are half breeds Put i use my bikes every day so have to have a 100% functoning bike. I can't sit and wait for 7/8 speed and other retro goodies to come up for sale. I'd love to. So here goes away

Frame 1990- Trimble frame
1990-Bullseye hub/1990Campac Atec rim 28hole
2007-Hope pro 3 hub/2007Mavic 717xc rim 32 hole
2007-XT Crankset (clearly based on retro Bullseye)
oldish Ritchey pedals
oldish Magura brakes
2006 (not made any more) Hope ti QR
2007 USE Seat pin carbon/sella filte seat
2007 Hope stem (standard size)
2007 USE carbon standard bar
2007 XT Shadow rear mech/ XT front
1990 Ritchey Logic Forks
Don't think the rules say it has to be 100% retro. Sorry if i have broken the rules. Also this is my work/spare bike.

Has JV and the mod's agreed on a GTOTM for January, cus I know JV was toying with the idea.
If its not going to happen I'll put the RTS in to get its arse kicked, if it is I'll save it for January......
