gets my vote, anyday

having seen your work on that Yo...... i'm sure your going to do this one some justice

Nice dude.

I'll be watching closely.

I am determined to build a ti bike this year.

Show me the way!

Guys,

who can tell me more about this.
Headset is 1" but what is the size of the seatpost?
And what year would this be? (TFM006)

The seatpostsize looks smaller then my Yo Eddy was,..so would it be a 26,4 then?

Thanks

Bas

Pearl's late 80's Monster is 26.4

 

[pete_mcc]

fat ti should be 29.4, at least my similarly early one is!

:shock: and another one...... not a bog suprise anymore hey, a Serotta!

Cheers,
Martin

yeah agree, should be 29.4.
those pics seem to show a silver shim lipped over the seatpost clamp.
i wouldn't expect to see a green seal washer used for a water seal..........i dont think the ti models had them........a guess mind.

reckon with that configuration of the serial number, autumn '95.
likely to be from the first batch out from the NY factory.
Bas you've got plently of syncros posts in that size, i'm taking a guess your going for the full syncros look

 

[Defiant]

No I am not

okay okay,..it will be a syncros seatpost i guess but i want to go for a different route this time.

I would like to take the IRD Interloc, White Industries path this time, and maybe some paul,..Onza,...i do not know yet, i do not want to build the same bike over and over again based on a different frame
