If it's build up I think you have a future winner here.

Nice. Whats the frame number?

Kev, I can't find one. Checked drop outs, shell - nothing. Probably covered under the coat. Where should it be normally?

Certainly not a factory colour but I like it.

Orange is listed in the catalogue. Maybe it is not the exact RAL, but judging from this pic it doesn't look much off.

Melvin… it's abominable !!!!!!

So, abominable accutrax and abominable A-TAC !
No anodised parts : they are not acceptable on such a frame !

Yeti usually fits 1"1/4 headset. I couldn't find a devolution ChrisKing headset for mine (CK doesn't buit them any more), and the only elegant solution was to find an 1" 1/4 Thread Accu-trax.
Yes, you could put shims on the frame but I'm not sure of the aesthetic…
Look at that http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250759039751#ht_500wt_1156 for your frame , but need an abominable orange respray !

Extra cups are ...acceptable for me Pierre. The Mongo is polished also and besides ...it is already Orange, so with a Dutch pragmatic attitude I can't go wrong with this one.

Usually under the bottom bracket shell.

And what color for the A-TAC stem ? Orange too ?

Is the head logo (the yeti sliding) original ?
The decal is usually a black drawing on white, with some holes in the bike's yeti, where you find the color of the bike.
This decal is very difficult to find.
I re-draw it for Gil, but he said me it's very difficult to print…

Nothing there. It must be secret prototype from before the MBA one I vaguely recall a four digit number on the dropout of my old Pro FRO, but also there ...nothing.

The ATAC will be a black one. Dito for the AccuTrax.

The drifting Yetiman head decal is black on clear. I do not know whether the drifting Yetiman decal is accurate for this frame, as the 'drifting' decal succeeded the static pedalling Yetiman decal and I do not yet know when the transition exactly happened.

Ultimate & my old Pro FRO >>

accutrax with a pro-stop would be cool on this

The 1 1/4 to 1 1/8th is still listed as being available on the CK website.
