Rear U was an 87 wicked trait, so that's ok, and the Salsa was often swapped in as it was a $69 upgrade:

The colour matched forks was a 'no cost' option on the wicked whereas it cost $100 on the Fat Chance, so another pointer towards the Wicked.

The standard Fat was mainly deore with Nitto and Sugino so I am pretty sure that its a Wicked! Nice bike either way :D

The thread is coming tonight with full details and up close pics of components...this will be fully geared. The SS might be the 85, but I'm not sure yet. :)

That's funny, and I know the feeling... When my best friend looks at what I do now and say's -"Wouldn't that look better with a damper fork" or -"Never heard of the brand 'Salsa', it can't be good then", what can you say...

I'd have sex with your bike, that's how nice it is... :D
