2002 Team Maxxis Taillefer WC Bike (Oscar Saiz)

heavyp · Oct 26, 2020

So after 18 years of wanting a very rare bike I finally got my hands on one and its better than a production version its an ex maxxis World Cup team bike belonging to former rider Oscar Said apparently.

Its pretty much a full build its just missing a very rare 10" Fox Vanilla or RS Pro Deluxe shock.

Really cool, especially with the Deemax wheels and cherry red Boxxers!

Wow I really had to go searching for my own thread, not much happening with this build at all apart from recently buying this monster 10.5" Rockshox shock from a twin shock Scott High Octane.

The Taillefer bikes used a huge shock but it was a team only prototype, I am hoping to use this shock and spares of an old rockshox pro deluxe to make a 10.5" Rockshox Pro Deluxe for this bike to make it an exact factory build.
