Early Rocky Mountain Wedge on Marketplace

[Guigui58]

Here's another very special find from my neck of the wood, an early Rocky Mountain Wedge (likely from 1988-1989).




I would have loved to grab this fillet brazed gem, but unfortunately, it was way too small for me (17" according to the owner)...

I love the livery, it reminds me of the 1991 Équipe. The bike appears to be in good shape, but the chain suck marks are somewhat worrisome... Still, a bike worth getting and fixing up!

Looks to be magura specific at the rear

@Ingola if that's Quebec french I'm reading, might show up on your marketplace feed. Definitely something you could swing a leg over. Wedge is a rare thing

Unfortunatley, without much surprise, it is already sold (it already was when I made the post, it took maybe a day or two)... It was in Montréal.

You're right, I really considered grabbing it despite the size, but my basement is already full of bikes so I'm getting picky with the new projects that I buy (and probably shoudn't ).

Plus, I would be sad to have such a nice and special bike that I wouldn't love riding... I'll leave it to someone who will truly enjoy it and wait for the next one (might be in 20 years though...).

You are in the same neck of the woods as @MattiThundrrr and probably less than an hour away
