Klein Adept 1993 Candy teal, finished.

[Vinevo]

Next build is in the stand, a lush '93 Adept. Going for a M900 XTR spec on this. Deep clean and polish first although it's pretty damn clean already. BB bearings are perfect but axle too long so need to change that over and headset bearings are perfect so no need to touch them.

Few crap pics to get going.

Re:

Nice! Those XS Adept frames look really tiny.

Re:

It is nice and it is small, especially with the 700c wheels on it. Won't be for me as it's a size too small, 17" so Klein XS.

So this is not a mtb?

Re:

It's a hybrid really, looks like your typical Klein mountain bike, Adroit/Attitude, but takes 700c wheels, early 29er perhaps!? I put it here as I feel it's more MTB than road bike and I know it appeals to Klein MTB owners. You can get 700c off-road tyres for it.

Re: Klein Adept 1993

I'm curious about the tyres you're going to put on it.
