I've known about this site forever, finally registered last year. I bought my Yo new in 1995, still have my original FAT COGS t-shirt when FCC sold them. Bike came with full XT group and Rock Shox Judy XC. It's rocky here on the desert trails, so it shared duties with my full susp. ride (1995 Turner Burner, still have it). In 1998 I decided the Yo had to be put on a diet, otherwise I raced the Turner most of the time. As pictured, the only thing different is the saddle, the Flite finally had to be replaced. After the "diet" it became my favorite ride.
Frame type: Yo Eddy Frame number: YOM134 Year of manufacture: 1995 Frame size: M Color: Sapphire fade, still original Location: Phoenix, AZ USA Owner name: Dave (aka MangoDave) 1998 changes include: Rock Shox SID Wheels - Chris King/Mavic 217 Race Face Cranks Precision Billet Pro Shift Brakes and Levers |
