This is my ‘95 Blizzard. Built with my favourite parts to ride and look at.

Bundled purchase. I believe it's an '01 Spice, paid $75. It wasn't my target bike but I'm gonna take it out today if it quits snowing.
Or maybe even if it doesn't! Happy New Year!

Very happy you picked that up, too good to let sit at that price.

My ROCKY MOUNTAIN 'fusion' - transformed from a MTB to a commuter / touring bike. Not finished yet: However I am riding it for checking what I still have to improve.

Picked up this crusty 88 Avalanche and succeeded in seized seatpost removal with brutality and
Fluid Film ....luckily the seatpost was short though the galvanic corrosion was substantial. My 88 Blizzard slope had
the same fate.

One of my favourite threads but somehow I've never posted anything here.

Where to start...



How about my 1991 Summit Max - a model only sold in Germany I think. Not sure how it ended up as part of a deal with a low end GT and a junk BMX bike, but that's how it goes.

This is how it started;



Probably the worst bike I've ever dealt with. Of course the seatpost was stuck.

I am pretty happy with the ratbike nature of what I ended up with. It feels like a race bike that someone with no budget scraped together. And it rides beautifully.

Thanks Roy ! I was donating some parts to a local cycling organization and found that Avalanche in a heap...feared it might find its way into the metal recycle bin.

if you don't plan to keep it maybe it'll somehow find a home at my place.
what size is the avalanche?
