1993 Rocky Mountain Thunderbolt

:cool:

Can I take credit for the Race Face headset? :LOL: ...I recall selling it to you a few years back I think :D

Should be a lovely build :)

Cheers

I would always - but that's what i always do - go for a quill stem.
I wouldn't as Rocky had left them behind as soon as ahead came out.


That grey stem is a late 90's GT owned model ?

What wheels are going on?

i have a temporary set that i'll use for now, but nothing yet that i would finally end up using. so still searching…

do you have something for me? :D
 
Beautiful frame, Frank. Glad it's going to see some life now. I agree that the pewter RF cranks, RF headset and RF bb are no-brainers. For my taste, I think I'd go black or ti for the stem/bar/seatpost. Assuming you have the right sizes and what-not.
 
No update on the Thunderbolt, but wanted to share a tidbit on the sign in the background. Just recalled one was listed on Vancouver craiglist some time last year in Vancouver. So I decided to dig through RBUK and see if I could find that thread I had posted about it.

Yee-Ouch! I recall it being pricey, but nothing close to the amount of $750! And before anyone asks, no this is not one in the same that I own now, I asked the prev owner if he was the buyer of that one.
