lovely build that will be, must be odd to ride a new old build.

I'm not sure if I want to... might bung it in the loft and bring it out for the 10 year RB anniversary.

I'm not keen on the Gripshift at all - but, I think I will put it together.
 
bargain there and no mistake :cool: how you getting it back though....could maybe have someone get it for you...
 
Well, got it home its as it would have arrived at the shop for assembly.

I was more than a bit surprised to find that the frame and rims were all US made.

NOS Tioga Psychos have never even been inflated until now.
 
Talk about NOS! I cant believe this has sat somewhere untouched for so long. In MTB terms, nearly 15 years is amazing.
