Hurry Up and post a picture... you can't keep us all in suspense

Pics up chaps, photobucket app had died on my phone.
Here's the build
95 AA frame
RC31 forks
XT discs M765
XT chain set M751 I think
Original kona set post
Race face deus bars and stem
Mavic 317 rims on DT hubs
Wtb velocirapter tyres
I'm going t use it over winter so went with discs over rim brakes, I know its a bit taboo on a retro but I can't be done with destroying a set of rims in the mud!

v nice. I've got exactly that going on with mine at the moment, though i'm running V's and it's a summer-time bike (saving the rims too )
very curious about your chain/magic gear. is yours an 18", it looks like it.
I run a strectched chain on 32x17 on mine, and it fits perfect

My frame is a 19 too although it seems smaller than my 94 AA. I needed to measure all three tubes on both so i can see of they are theed same our nit
The gearing in the pics is 32 x 18. The front ring is just a knackered middle ring off another chainset. the chain isn't new though, I've used it on another bike so its probably stretched too.
Haven't done a proper ride on it yet so can't confirm if it works properly without a tensioner. Seems ok up and down the street but that's not a real test.

Love the frame, hate the discs but if works for you that's all that matters.
