First post here.
I picked up a 1993 Frameset in the fall and set about doing a full bare metal restoration of it. It was originally black so I kept it original. Everything was freshly powder coated and it has a full M900 group. It's like brand new again. You can see the build thread here: http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/vie...p?f=6&t=308907 A dream bike for sure ... will be a blast on the trail when things thaw in the great white north ![]() Frame: 1993 M/L Fat Chance Yo Eddy Fork: Original Yo Eddy Headset: Mavic Stem: Syncros 1st Gen 1" Handlebar: Bonty Titec Ti Grips: Pedros Barends: Onza Ti (not pictured) Brakes: XTR M900 Brake Pads: Cool Stop Brake Cables: XTR M950 Cantilever cable hangers: Ringlle Brake Levers: XTR M900 Shifters: XTR M900 Front Derailleur: XTR M900 Rear Derailleur: XTR M900 Derailleur Cables: XTR M950 Cassette: XTR M900 Chain: HG91 Cranks: Shimano XTR M900 Crank Bolts: XTR M900 Chainrings: Veulta Chainring bolts: shimano Bottom Bracket: XTR M900 Pedals: NOS Shimano 737 Hub Skewers: XTR M900 Rims: Mavic 717 Hubs: XTR M900 Nipples: DT Spokes: DY Tyres: Panaracer Reissue Smoke and Dart Tubes: MEC Saddle: Original Flite (1995 stamp) Seatpost: NOS Syncros Seatpost Binder: XTR M900 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

That looks fantastic! Well done.
Why not the XTR headset?

I was considering it, but I liked the look of the black better than the silver. The Mavic headset is amazing. Easily the most solid felling headset I have had. There is just not play and its so smooth. I was actually planning (and got) a CK headset, but as soon as I tried this out I didn't want to change it.
Thanks all ![]() |

Stunning build. Particularly like the blue decal vibe. Making me think now.

I really like the traditional all-black plan. My evil was all-black for quite a while.
