Seinfeld KLEIN Pinnacle project

High everyone!
As the title says,.. i'm trying to rebuild the KLEIN Pinnacle MTB as can be seen in the later seasons of the SEINFELD sitcom series. I have been able to locate a nice Pinnacle that i will be using for this but am looking for parts, some of which i don't even know what brand they could be.
i have found the seat post (Sakae TCO) but am looking for the saddle. It's an AVOCET R30 i think, from early 90's.
here are some pictures:

i believe it is Deore XT fitted but what about those black sprockets?
Then there is the MC1 that i need to find one of
and what brand could be the headset?
and what type of fork is this?
the cranck?
any info would be great,.. even greater would be any of those parts for sale.
Thanks!
 
Re:

It looks like a Suntour chainset and brake levers to me, either XC Comp or XC Ltd (maybe XC Pro but the brake levers were all black on Pro as far as I remember). The canti's are silver so that would lead me to believe they might be XC Ltd or they may be dia-compe 986's as they were fitted to some Kleins BITD for heal clearance on the rear. There's Suntour Catalogues in the Archive or some pic's if you follow the link below to show what I mean:

Re:

Serial number = P697
 
The seat is a M30. Its a pita finding in good condition. Even though not expensive if you find one. I had one sent from the US and he didn't put it in a box. When I got it it was flat and all the cover had been unstretched. You will also find some W30 out there which is the wider womens seat. I would assume its a 1" Spinner fork.
 
Re: MC1 klein

Hi everyone. I'm still looking for a mc1 for this project. No problem if it has wear and scratches as i shall have it repainted anyway. It is to be send to the netherlands.
Cheers.
 
Re:

Hello gt bike rider. I tried searching for this number on ebay but could not find anything. I am interested. Where are you located?
 
Hi.Google the number and the first ad comes up.Shows all info on fork and handle bars.Heres a pic.
Where are you? If interested ,how about 160.00 plus shipping.
 
Re:

Ok got it now. I'm in the Netherlands. I'm afraid i will have to pass as the import duties and taxes are insane from the usa. Am looking for one in the eu. Thanks in any case!
