2005 (20th anniversary) Rocky Mountain Blizzard

First job was to strip some parts off and then touch up any little chips. Thankfully black and white is pretty straightforward to match! But as a whole frames in decent condition

I'll be adding parts as and when I get them.

It was actually yours that made me decide on going white fox forks as opposed to black. Yours looked

Thanks, they seemed to go better with the white front end.

Agreed. I noticed some had the black front end and white rear. But as much as black looks good I think white would look better

Going for a slightly more modern build.. So xt bb installed. The newer bottom brackets are annoyingly smaller... And so an adapter was needed to fit my usual bb tool! Thanks shimano!

I couldn't have silver as it wouldn't have matched.... So black it had to be

 

[dandy1]

And xt cranks installed and my favourite wellgo pedals! ... Still Undecided whether I run raceface cranks instead

Goodies have arrived in the post.

First a set of white fox forks... Thanks TerryParadise. And found a nice nos raceface deus headset. I know there's better out there but it's black, it's raceface so it'll match the raceface theme and for my leisurely riding it'll be fine
