Hello guys,

I few weeks ago I got this very nice package!
This week I will build this bike, so every day I will have an nice update!
Have fun following this very special project :)



 
Chris King is pressed in easily. I just checked the tubes and some grease did the job.

It is a pitty that I do not have a Rock Shox Mag 21 SL steerer, but this one will do till I found one. Or do you have one or do you know somebody having a spare RS Mag 21 SL, 1 inch steerertube, minimal 150mm???




 
Nice find!

Well, it ain't a rainforest Adroit, but it's still pretty nice.


I think one of your SL Ti's is lonely and needs a new home...
 
Interesting, never seen them before. Which year is yours? 1994?

I think, just polished silver parts will do fine. Anodized colours will distract from the frame.

I know, V-Brakes are not time-correct but somehow I think Avid Arch Surpremes will go nicely with this frame. Both extreme parts!
 
Re: New Project and no it is not a Klein :)
