1994 Grove Innovations Assault Build Thread

[sho220]

Picked this up on the cheap several years ago off Craigslist. It was a Team bike from '94 that was in a sorry state once I got it. The only part I ended up keeping was the bottom bracket. Everything else got binned. It's been a slow build from parts I had lying around, parts I scavenged from yard sale finds and the random bit here and there from eBay. I'm not sure the parts spec does the frame justice, but it all works well...
