FAT CHANCE Wicked Lite 19.5”

M-Power

Old School Grand Master
Anyway....patience is not my strong point but i am waiting for this, an elusive 94 Wicked Lite, hopefully getting shipped in a week or two. Its been around 2 years since i had a new bike.... :roll: I said never again, then i caught a glimpse of one for sale my size in the States but the seller was ‘difficult’ to deal with. The yearning started. I tried to ignore it, i really did. Then I started reading endless build threads, frame registry posts, hitting up existing owners who just wouldnt budge but i kept on hitting people up. I paid way more than market :facepalm: but im done with time consuming £££ repaints and want something pretty and ready to roll.....so....

Its just the frame, forks and headset winging their way to me. The plan is to avoid blinging it up. Thinking of either M900 or older reliable M732 and a few classic parts to hand. More pics to follow. Anybody else got one of these ?

It fades to green. No idea, think its custom but never seen it on another FAT :?

Thanks man :mrgreen: I started the hunt a few years ago and gave up. Then that itch started. I must have looked at this thing more times than this poster as a kid.

Re:

As she was in her previous life. Im thinking Ti flexstem, IRD silver post, black xt on sunset rims, definitely thumbies. Not sure on cranks or the rest of the parts. :?

I love my wife, my 89 Team Comp but how will I feel if this 94 upstart rides better ? That IS the question. Do i really need to find out ?

I'm in the exact same boat, building up an '89 Wicked to compare to my '89 TC...

Love that stem!
 
Re:

Its a question i have mulled over for years :LOL: Sure you will beat me too it, so give us a ride comparison please. The matching painted stem is lovely and they ride great iirc but seller is keeping it.

I like the color green-brass fade


Definitely a girl bike. The colour reminds me of ripening pomegranates. :mrgreen:
