Nice.. I had a beautiful Red, White, Blue Kuwahara back in the day. Never knew what the model name was, it was my first mtb new frame that I bought new. Bent the down tube on a nasty downhill. Stored in the folk's basement on top of the freezer to be fixed someday. My mother tossed it in the trash.. along with a nice World Class Ti BB that was in it.. :cry:

Very nice! I've got a 20 year old Pacer, but it has the pink and black livery. Also is the Deore XT groupset the original specification as mine only has the Deore groupset.
Edit: I've just realised that yours does have Deore, it just seems to be the later chemically blacked version. I notice that you still have the "love or hate them" Biopace chainrings though!

Hi
I am pretty sure Shimano DX was the original set up for a Kuwahara Pacer.
I just bought the frame then built it up with components I had at the time.
They are great frames ...fast and light and the paint work is brilliant
Now on the look out for a high pacer but they are not easy to come by....

I must have a very early version then as mine is fitted with the Deore groupset that existed before Shimano introduced the LX/DX variants.
