Trek 9000

Re: Re:

Al, this is the only bike I've catapulted myself off from, made worse as it was in front of some hostile locals in Canada, circa mid '90's. 'American lacing' of the brakes meant a squeeze of the left lever loaded the elastomers and set them to eject! Only moments before I'd offered a know it all bike rental rep my knowledge of bikes back home. Happy daze. Peace and love, H.

I'll make sure to have the cables run the right way round... and do remember I'm a very skilled athlete and incredible bike handler, so I think I can tame the bike.

Slow progress, but the bars and stem are done. A light dusting of gold on the bars for a little seasonal cheer... hooray!

Never seen anything like it!

Are the forks upside down design, al? Did you paint the bars too?
I like it so far

They are Halson 'Inversion' forks.

Yes I couldn't find a bar in this gold, just the nasty yellowy gold anno stuff.

Going for these W.I cranks, Pace rings and XT mech... thanks Adrian.
