Norwegian mtb history. Serial 0053. (Not a rebranded Nishiki Ariel). 1991
This is how it looks now. I will of course take it a all a part very soon and make the nice as pretty as I can, and put it together again.
Some stuff needs to be changed though. I have a new seat and tires for it, but I need to get a matching rim. It came originally with black Alesa rims from Belgium, but it now has a black Campa Stheno rim rear. So I need to get either a Alesa or Stheno. 36H. The stem and bars needs to be swapped due to corrosion. I have a stem that is almost identical, but with less rise. I have bought a new Tioga handlebar from the German ebay.
I am really ok with the chrome xt 730 cranks, but I am toying with the idea of a Tioga Revolver or original black M730 cranks. If I find one of them. But Ill be ok with the ones on there. (Update: found a black XT crank yesterday on tis forum)
I do need some new black Tioga grips though due to some damage on one of them. Don´t need to be new, but had to be able to clean them up pretty nicely with some elbow grease. I also want some pink Tioga branded straps for toe clips.
