I bought the Team frame a while ago knowing it would need refinishing. I had difficulty find a suitable rigid fork for it. So when a NOS Comp frameset came up, I thought I use the fork off that and the frame as a guide for refinishing the Team.
However, now the Comp has arrived, it's rather nice and both frames weigh about the same :?
So to save myself the cost of getting the Team refinished I'll build up the Comp with the M900 kit instead, what do you think? :?
The inspiration
The frames; sorry poor pics :roll:
Montana Team...
Montana Comp....
The parts....
True Temper bars, haven't found a Zoom 130 (yet) so thought this would go well with the frame
Zoom Stem, 100 and 120
Headset Choice, xtr or Tioga Master DL (OE)
ODi Attack grips
M900 STi Units
A rather nice set of M900 cantis
M900 Mechs
M900 Chainset with Ti bolts
BB Choice UN-91 or Specialized Ti
Chain
Seat-post
Gave the Comp frame a quick polish The pink is really quite vivid :shock:
It really is very nice and equally as nice to build onto a 'new' frame
Today's progress....
Just needs the chain fitting and cabling, oh and the M900 cassette to turn up then it should be good to go
