Pics of JMC bike attached as per earlier posts (several weeks ago). The bike was one of his hardtail training bikes, procured when I worked at Hardisty Cycles (who were his sponsor at the time in the North East) back in the early 90s, before he turned pro for specialized. It was originally black/white, I then had it respayed in same scheme, but red/white. The frame was made by Kevin Winter who built handmade frames for Hardistys and i think its Columbus thron tubing but I may be wrong??
Much of the kit is original and some has been updated since. see what you think. Have had it for around 17 years, although it has hardly been used in last 10years. Its a bit battered and was used in first few years after i attained it but not much since then. Has just been serviced in Jan 2010 and is in perfect working order. have posted some info before, so you may be able to find original threads.
Details of kit below from what I remember:
Original kit:
Deore LX canti’s
Deore DX frt mech
Specialized chainset with Middleburn cranks
Deore XT thumbies
Mavic X517 rim on Xt bub
Zoom 170 bars

RR wheel, Truvativ hub,, SUP rim
Road Headset, Campag Chorus
