I thought I'd share some details of a current project in the works. I've started the rebuild process on a '90 RMB Blizz.
This has always been a bit of a dream bike for me & my size at 18.5. I was 13 years old when this bike was new. A very basic Nishiki MTB from the local Cap's was what I was riding those days (It could have been worse).
I bought this rocky from the original owner for next to nothing. He was a super nice guy who just wanted to pass on this classic. Great local history too, it spent it's life in North Vancouver and saw some updates in the 90's and was finally converted to street duty before getting left in the corner of the garage. It's seen many smiles and miles. Check out the original RMB leather saddle!
Now, 30 years down the road it's time my turn to give this bike a new life. I stripped it down right away and was pleased to find the frame in good overall shape. Lot's of nice parts too, most of which will find their way onto other projects.
Cheers, and enjoy the ride.
Pic is from when I received the bike a couple of years ago.
