I have NOS set of Tioga Prestige II bars on mine...suit it very well

Can you tell me what the seatpost is on yours please?

Actually, have Prestige bars too. I got them from mfh126 a while back. I will see which look better.

I believe it is the spec seat post, Strong PM-30

Thanks for that....I am thinking there is zero chance of finding an original one of those. :?

Were your bars from Mikes Tomac Mongoose ?

I believe they were.

So this one is finished. I overhauled all of the bearings and shined the paint a bit. There are a number of scratches, but this one will be a lunch time rider and stored at work. Also, I had to change the white bars. I wanted to leave it original, but couldn't stand the sight of those white bars. I also changed the brake levers. The original were badly faded by the sun. I put on XT 733s. I will look on eBay for the correct levers. Oh, I also replaced the U-brake, same part number, but in silver. I had to go with a longer seatpost and Farmer John(cousin & nephew) tires.

Yeah, something about the U-brake. I love it.

That's a good looking steed, what's the weight of it?

I don't have a scale, but it isn't as light as an aluminum bike should be.

Nice job....you found the original spec saddlle..been looking for ages for one of those with the gel intact.

Does that mean the original seatpost is up for grabs
