Finally got the RTS pretty much together. I had a '93 RTS (first edition) and then a '96 Team in Ink Blue so I missed my RTS's and finally scored one recently on the bay. I sold my Trek Fuel EX9 so the RTS will be my main MTB for the foreseeable future. It feels fairly lite, I havent weighed it but it seems to be around 24lbs. Cant wait to hammer on people with a retro frame!
