new user, 93 YO EDDY! project/ collection

[thrashin]

well I always wanted a YO since I was racing the junior class in the late 80s and early 90s. However being so young i could never afford one. I've owned 3 since I've "grown up" but i never really built one into my dream bike. So about a year ago I ran across a near mint frame and decided to get started. I'll post my progress in here and I threw in some pics of some of my FAT collection just for kicks.

frame and stuff...

jersey's

haha, yes it is. Got that a few years back, its on the side of my left leg..

haven't done much at all. heres what Ive got going, XT derailleurs, XT thumbies, matrix hyperlite bars, titanium fork, syncros stem, original answer headset, and the cook bros. cranks. these wheels are garbage and will not be used. I stole them off my girlfriends bike just to stand it up haha

In which case you'll never be able to sell the Yo!

Anyway good start to the build

Nice!

it is a great colour frame to play around with some anno bits.
That's not an original Ti Fork right?

no, I wish it was. I've been searching for an original fat ti or a big one inch with no luck.
