Looks :cool: :cool: :cool:

Those black wheels and rims really suit the frame. Might even be better with a black XT crankset!!

Possibly, I will need a nice set of silver/polished cranks in the near future anyway...... :mrgreen:

And ran outside before and rerouted & shortened the rear brake cable housing that ran over the seat skewer. it now runs smoothly 'along' the frame but just the right length to stay just under 1/4" off of the frame. Looks much nicer.
 
I have to be the odd one out :oops:

Given it was almost box fresh, to see changes makes me cringe a bit..sorry
 
^ For this particular bike, I didn't mind much.

And, when everything seemed to be running well and right, my BB started creeking a bit today. I puleld over and rocked the crankarm to see ~1mm of play in the axle.

Anybody have a 68mm x ~130 BB?? Preferably something like early 90's XT, low miles or NOS??
 
Is that not a cup and cone bottom bracket? Re-grease and adjust will cure it. You'll not even need new bearings if the match the general condition of the bike!
 
After hitting Google it appears as if it has one....but the general concensus is that it's not worth it.

Still need a BB....
