Awesome build!
Great thread!

Very well done, I'd be happy with that!

The changes to the shifters is a typical upgrade/swap out from the 90's anyway.
The whole bike just needs a break-in now.
Filth'd up and washed a dozen times to dull it a little.
Enjoy mate.

Wow. That's really come together well.

Hope you're chuffed!

Thanks all, yep I'm really pleased with it. It's so nice using it for shorter journeys rather than use the (cough... road bike) or my newer fully sus.

Looking forward to a fully rigid trip down memory lane when I take it off road!

Very nice.
Making me rethink my simple strip and clean on my 92.
Thanks for posting.

looking great..i used spay.bike to paint a pine mountain...their neon orange was terrible almost pinky/orange...so ended up using Meise Orange which is a bit of a light burnt orange...looks pretty good.
the paint is amazing...did mine around a year ago and still looking great...maybe a few tiny chips from launching it of a mountain.View attachment 546932

Have you just used a quill adaptor to fit that stem buddy?

Thank you. Looks great btw. I’ve just bought a pine mountain from the forum so making some plans for it. Love the high rise bars and short stem
