Hi everyone. I'm a newbie to this site and am after some info & help on my early nineties Orange.
I bought it in about '95 but was never sure exactly what model it was. I assume it's a Vitamin T but would need it confirmed. The frame is covered in a matt grey, underneath that it's dull metal coloured, in places it's been rubbed off leaving the metal open to the atmos which hasn't corroded it at all, hence me thinking its Ti.
I did build it using POS bars stem and forks but would like to do a decent build on it now I've dragged it out of the spare room where it's been languishing for the past 10 years or so.
I would like some suggestions as to what forks should be fitted. I would rather go for rigid as I would like to build it as light as possible. Would it of had a A-headset, or normal headset with clamp on stem, or full on quill type stem?
I'm not too bothered about originality so what forks, bars stem etc should I look at sourcing?
The wheels are Fir rims with shimano & something else hubs. The seatpost is defo Ti but will require a shim to fit the frame.
Many thanks!
I tried to add photo's but am unable to until I've reached 5 posts.
Edit. Pics added.
