Sunn 5000 MAX 1995

[bduc61]

The french MTB bread and butter of the mid nineties.

Nice Tange DB frame
Very easy to maintain chromium ( much better than paint )
XT Mechs
XT hubs on Mavic 217
XT Cantis + Diacompe levers
SRT 800
Sugino Cranks for Sunn
Brute Stem and Bar
Good old flite
very close to original
Dunno if I will try to redo the downtube sticker as I find it sleek this way !
10.6KG total

Will sit in the grandparents country house for the boys ( I have been traumatized when young as there was only rubbish bikes to be found there :cry: )

nope did not spend one bit doing that.

Its chromium plated steel and if not stored outside will last forever and very durable. I like these because does not need repainting

Occasionally, a bit of pitting but easy to cure.

Well bonjour monsieur,

Your frame looks lovely. Please could you take a pic of your chainstay protector for me? I need a pic for reproducing on my Sunnn build. Thank you.
