I dont know what happened with the pics, useless!

As far as the build goes:

1993 ish XT rear mech, DX front, DX thumbies, DX Crankset, Original bontrager BX1 and BX3 wheels.

Going with the black and silver theme. Wheels, mechs, crankset, seatpost and bar ends all alloy finish.

Will post pics when its all complete. Cant wait to see if it rides as well as I remember.

Anybody know where I am going wrong with the pic size?
