Imaging some Carbon suspension forks

Lovely tribute, but man those MASSIVE tire logos are a bit jarring.

(Sorry, pet peeve of mine)

Nice, foam grips are a lovely retro touch.

Whole thing exists just ‘because we can’, and why not!

Agree with you on those Tyres @Dr Dremel .. Could have done with a set more sympathetically retro..

Tyre logos...~?

I like some of the thinking, but not that nice in my opinion. Some of the other bikes are very nice on the other hand

It's pretty cool, not taking away from the craftsmanship.... but would be better with yellow fork legs/stem, lose the gold, maybe Middleburns and Hope brakes? Or a tubular steel crank in yellow?

To be honest I was thinking exactly that. Would be cool if Magura still did raceline rim brakes though to be honest if you used maguras on those rear stays they’d probably snap

So what we thinking would be better for this?

29” terra ones (don’t exist)
Bullseye crank lookalikes in yellow
Yellow forks or re done rc 35s
Black or neon Magura disk/rim brakes
Shame Suntour doesn’t exist anymore (well they make forks) Could repaint some existing derailleurs to resemble xc pro.

Give the man a cigar for loving something so much, with his skill set deciding he wanted to emulate the ethos in modern terms.

And I guess you can have any spec you want from the current market if your wallet is open.

What I do find crazy, is bitd, we were all reading magazines, and the hot topic with every bike review was tyre/mud clearance etc,

Do we not worry about such things nowadays...?

Good point, that would clog quickly.
