I was looking for a dirt jumper for one of my sons and put dirt in the search on CL and a surprise for me, this showed up and nobody had made an offer to the seller. I ended up with it and only drove 15 miles to collect. I have stripped it down to the frame, like we all do with a new bike, so starting the bin parts search for some correct bits to slap on it. Unfortunately, the original fork is long gone, owner swapped in a suspension fork so the uni will stay until I get something a bit closer to what would have been on the bike and have it painted to match, I know a few custom painters who can handle the job. The Nitto bars will be replaced with the original fillet brazed cockpit at some point, had an ahead set up on it so need a threaded fork to do that. Some little cool touches are the inside TT cable routing for the rear brake and tiny screws on the rear dropouts to tune the alignment of the rear wheel. I will at some point before assembly, drill a small hole in the BB to the seat tube and Frame saver the interior of the tubes.
Great score!
