So? Really don't care. This was a non-catalogue one with adjusted geometry for rigid.

Hi all, My recent Brodie Expresso build. - DT Swiss 240S wheels + Ceramic Mavic rims - LX cantilever brakes + Koolstops - Tektro FL750 Cantilever brake levers - Chris King 1 1/8" NoThreadSet (with devolution 1 1/8" to 1" crown race) - Syncros 1" threaded fork - Thomson Elite stem - Thomson...

Love this ride height. To each it's own. Wouldn't go rigid on this one.

--> Sibgletrack 990 lugs version --> Sid Black Box --> Chris King Black NoThreadSet --> Thor Carbon seatpost, stem and handelbar --> LX Black hubs (Mavic rims) --> 7-speed Suntour X-1 rear derailler and shifter(s) --> Tioga brake levers --> Brooks saddle (70s) --> LX Black cranks on XTR UN-90...

Thanks! Only for 1 year. They had issues with the lugs bonding.

Built this for my 9yr old. Combination of Shimano and Sram gripshift. Magura HS33 (201x series). Marzocchi Z1 Bomber NOS

Got this pretty cheap (350 euro). But was equipped with XTR disc brakes with red calipers and Mavic Ceramic SSC Disc Wheels. Cabling was also red. Toned it down with my preferred braking system --> XTR M960 V-brakes. un91 ISO BB with LX black lacquer cranks. Wheels are Shomano 2000-ish XT...

But without the stickers and in the non-disc version. Also got some early black hub BullsEye wheels.

I think more in the line of the 16 spoke Shimano XTR/XT from the '00.

Lol, thanks for the heads-up. Got some 20 odd pairs of wheels to choose from.

Yep, it is a sweet ride that fork.

What do you think of this setup for a build?

Lol, build them in due time (i have 20 more frames).

I agree!
