RC200f8
Another one to be added to the list
XC818174 a 2001 RC200F8 in a sort of satin pro class blue/grey. Was originally silver, but was repaired and reannodised by Pace just before they stopped frame production - cracked in the usual place at the bottom of the seat tube, this was rewelded along with additional welds on both chain stays and I had the canti mounts removed at the same time. This was my 4th warrenty replacement frame, they all cracked at the bottom of the seat tube and chain stays. 1st was an F5 in silver (f518017), then a later F5 in polished blue/grey (F518262) with the wider wish bone stays and beefier canti mounts, then came an odd one, basicly an F7 with F8 butted bottom bracket shell and F8 disc mounts in a polished black/grey colour, think this was built from odd bits and had a frame no. starting W18****** - dont have a record of the rest of it.
The F8 currently consists of: 1st generation RC31's (and the steerer broke on me!) 100mm RC45 stem,rc SUB 130's, Syncros post, flite TT, Middleburn RS3's & hardcote rings, Hope sport hubs on mavic 317 original Mini brakes (145/165), Hope ti bottom bracket, 1st generation Hope QR's & no logo King headset
