Not everyones cup of tea, but show us your retro HOTRODS!

My retro 1992 GT with modern bits,

Its adapted quite well to the modern risers, short stem, rock shox, and bontrager wheels. Still as fresh as the day i brought it home

I forgot about this one, I don't really think of it as retro. 1995 Kilauea*, parts drawn from about every year since, probably ;-)




*yes, I know the stickers are wrong :roll:

To my mind the whole UK MTB scene could be seen as 'hot rodding' from the early 90's onwards... who bought a bike from the showroom and kept it that way??!

Here's two that I rode today...

Edit:

Nevermind that story I was fed...this is infact a Race...not race lite. Guess that's why it has survived heavy use. Thanks for bringing that up. It's incredible no one else caught it first over on the reader's ride thread.
