1992 Brodie Catalyst

I've had this for almost three years now, after buying it from another forum member over in Vancouver - thanks David Built from Tange Prestige Concept and finished in a tasty black/purple fade; it was finished August 21st 1992 and sold to Tailwind Cycles in Richmond, BC. I decided to keep the build relatively simple and plumped for reliable old XT for the most part. Got in a few post build snaps before getting it dirty.

Re:

Love it. Great build.

nice colour, not sure if its my screen but pics are a bit dark bet its nice when the sun hits it

Did the forks and stem come with the frame too?

It was a bit overcast when I took the pics. I'll get some more up when I get a chance. The frame, fork and stem were all part of the deal. It was pretty much a complete bike, minus wheels. It had a mostly Suntour XC Ltd groupset when I got it.

Re:

Cracking build, can’t fault in any way

Still hankering for a Brodie with Gatorblade someday!

Re:

Nice job.
Always liked that fade.

nice one, and good job as always...

Re:

I wish i had the odd frameset or two hanging around for three year's

Stunning bike Adrian...

Thanks for the nice comments chaps, hopefully I'll get the opportunity to ride it properly this weekend.

It's just the tip of the iceberg tbh Will - too many projects in the shed!

Lovely eh!
