My first retro bike, a C'dale F1000 from 1995

[Tazie]

Hey guys

At first great thx to the auction watch where i found a lot of m950 parts to build this puppy.

I bought the bike as a complete original ride, but a few parts where in bad shape (like the original twist shifters). So i decided to upgrade the bike with a full XTR M950 group. For the rest i used the original coda parts.

So after alot of ebaying (without and with beers :evil: (ahum my wheelset ) )


This is the result, and i'm kinda proud of it

More detailed pics will follow when i sort out my webserver


ps some work needs to be done

remaking the headshok
new decals
finaly decide with tires i shall use

ps2 a big thx to Solo for helping me with this project
