Last week I Picked up a k2 comp1 from 92/93 from the first owner. It has a couple nice bits but I mostly like the yeti/bmx style loopstays and the wheelset: xt m730 hubs on mavic ceramic coated rims.
I already stripped the frame of its clearcoat and have sanded and polished it. Not a perfect mirrorfinish but I think the result is pretty good considering its all done by hand (and sore fingers
).
I changed the rearmech for an xt-m730, spd pedals for flats, bar with an alloy syncros, tires for hutchinsons (non retro)
The drive side crank has been replaced with an deore lx so if you have a 175mm xt one please let me know!
I want to swap the stem for something shorter with some rise, control tech or amswer atac. The maguras will stay for now but Id ideally replace those as well for cantilevers.
