Thought I'd pop up a few pictures of my univega mountain bike, seem to remember it was in the early 90's when I picked this up, all new and shiny and absolutely hammered the life out of it racing, touring and generally hooning around with my mates, happy days.
Over the years parts began to wear and the shiny paint got chipped, so rather than throw a perfectly nice bike away , I decided to keep her running and breath a new lease of life into the ol gal,
After dragging her out of the attic and giving it a good strip clean,I decided to put her together mainly to commute to work on for a change from a road bike, but ideally I want to return it to the dirt , albeit with some parts more in keeping with the vintage,
So to start with I'll put some pictures up of how she stands at the minute, I'll update the post when I start to do some changes.. hope you like her
