Yeah would love a pair of 32h Mavic M6 but man are they hard to find! I found some really nice MA40s that are mint but they're $$$...so for the meantime in order to get this bike on the road the non '89 specific 230s will have to do.

Thanks for all the replies and insights - much appreciated...got some Mavic 230s that I'm lacing to XC Pro hubs...nearing the final stages of the build = pics to come in the next couple of months

PM'd about mavic 230s :)

Pm incoming

I have recently acquired an '89 Wicked Fat Chance in pretty much NOS condition - I'm building it up with full XC Pro (7spd) I was looking for a set of NOS rims that I could have built up with XC Pro hubs o have (freewheel). I plan on running Compass Rat Trap Pass tires (2.3") - so would...

From the listing: Pretty cool. http://www.ebay.com/itm/VERY-RARE-FIRST-BIANCHI-ATB-NTH-POWER-SYSTEM-PROJECT-COLUMBUS-EL-TUBE-CELESTE-XT-/190737485895?pt=Road_Bikes&hash=item2c68d71047

Found this on my local craigslist guy has a bike shop, so he'd probably ship it price seems good - $225 cad http://toronto.en.craigslist.ca/tor/bik/3283018397.html j

Thanks for the link. Going off that spec sheet, there's some indicators that it may not be an '88. Not to worry as I'm speaking with the owner tonight, who I've been told has the receipt and catalogue from the shop where he bought the bike. Turns out the guy who posted it knows...

legrandefromage of course! I'm a newbie here and to a forum culture in general. Admittedly, I need to become a little more resourceful. So that's an 88 as well? It's beautiful, a much nicer paint scheme than the black one I'm looking at, which I haven't even seen in person yet. In fact...

Hi all, Wondering what you guys know and think about the fillet brazed Fisher Mt. Tams? I always loved these bikes, however, I don't see many of them here. Are they not coveted retro bikes? I'm looking at maybe buying an '88 - the picture of it is below. All deore XT 6 speed with WTB...

trail_head, agreed. sylus, you are correct. Forum members, please accept my apology. In retrospect, my reaction to the OP's post regarding a username on another website didn’t warrant a reply here and is irrelevant and disruptive to this thread. haggis, I’m sorry about that and best...

iamtheholocaust? ha. you gotta be kidding - with a user name like "iamtheholocaust" on ebay I'd never buy anything from you, as I hope other forum members wouldn't as well. disgusting.

This one is listed in my city on craigslist. http://toronto.en.craigslist.ca/tor/bik/3064730314.html He says no shipping...but if someone here wants it and can help me find a 21" wicked fat chance I'd gladly help with that.

Hey, I have a chance to score a Yeti FRO 88 (see pic) I have a 91 Wicked Fat Chance which I love...the ride is just amazing, on and off road. Anyone know what the Yeti FRO is like? Are these two bikes completely different in ride quality/handling characteristics? What would you do...

Hi All, Long time lurker first time poster. Hoping you guys could help me with this. Apparently it's a "Nukeproof" frame but I can't seem to locate any serial #'s. Does anyone know where to look for them on the frame? Interesting mix of components including that Profile crank...
