Fat Chance 10th Anniversary from 1992

[Ganimed]

Hi classic bike lovers

I wanna show you another pearl of my retro bike collection. The Fat Chance 10th Anniversary from 1992.

These frames were made all by Chris Chance himself. There were only 200 made of these.

Bought it 20 years ago in 2002 as a frameset together with original fork and Syncros Revolution crankset.











Hope you like it
Olli

Between this 10th and Tomianson´s Titanium, the best 26in mtbs ever made. The 10th is not susp corrected.

Very nice. So, I just finished building mine. FWIW there were 182, maybe 183 made and they were not welded by Chris. Also, mine appears to be suspension corrected, at least the fork is, hard to know whether the frame is as well. Fork is original to the frame.
