Kästle SL-D 1000 (2003)

this spring i've found this "old" frame in a great conditions, and, thinking about my father's old aluminum mtb, I've decided to start a new project to make him a present...
every thing started from the frame and from the availability of an NOS RS Tora 100mm.

I've decided to assembly it with the less money as possible, ensuring a great taste of reliability, with the 3x9 system that he normally use, and with some components that i've dismissed from my other bike during the last decade...

this is the frame:
it's very very light, it's so damn 90's xc-race oriented, and it's a 18", so i can rode it sometimes :)
