Dirt Shark

Great find!
Had one of these, too. Mine had a 27.2 mm post and was very light at about 2040 g in the same size as yours. Used it as a sundays bike rather than for harsh trail riding because of the tiny fork which has a lot of comfort due to her flexy nature.
Had been always a pleasure to look at the fillets, great work by John...

Good luck with the build!

Saw this on ebay, liked it, put in a bid and surprisingly got it.

Yeah, I remember seeing this thing on ebay. Great score!

It's very rare to find all the painted goodies, frame, bar/stem, and pump, all together and intact!!

This will be a great bike once you get it built up!

definitely go with Shimano XT M730/732 build

the IRD's pop up, be patient......

As CRC said M730/732 build.
