nice splash of carbon too. not sure the rear brake routing will take off though

;)
 
ye could be a bit dodgy,still a work in progress gotta get the gears sorted and change the crank for an xt hollowtech.really pleased hows it coming togther, wasnt sure about the fork but it seems to be a good choice but the proof will be in the riding.

Spec when completed:1997 koa frame
rockshoks tora 318 RS
xt hollowtech crank
xt rear mech
deore front mech
xt m775 brakes
richey wcs v3 stem
easton c70 xc bars
easton c70 seat post
DT swiss 4.2d rims
Hope hubs with TI scewers
Only retro bit is the frame.(sorry) :LOL:
 
its an a2z adapter,fits the koa frame like a glove.Im the same with putting new gear on older frames,doesnt always work but think it has with this one :D
 
nice bike. frame's in very good nick. i've got one of those adapters kicking about that was on a scott frame i had, won't fit on my hot though!

What's up with your saddle angle?
