Rocky Mountain Thunderbolt

I'm recovering from a car accident I was in last week. I went to my lbs to look for spare parts. The owner knows I am like retrobikes and showed his new display bike. Before I asked, he told me NOT FOR SALE. He used it on the trails 5 times!

He has box of nos RM handle (90's).
We talked about some of those parts. He said he wanted it close to period. He used a Norco seat post, Trans-X handle bar, and not the correct RM stem. They should all be Syncros.

They should all be Syncros.

Indeed. It's the law.

Indeed. It's the law.

Depends what year it is, they switch to RaceFace also.

So he has a custom built bike and has only ridden it 5 times in all these years.

Does look nice though

Lovely bike. We don't see many of them. Thanks for posting and hopefully you will recover soon.
