Genius. Its been around and used on road bikes. Flexy if you are mashing the pedals, sprinting or descending rough terrain.

Early Bontrager race lites are not corrected for the fork i saw in pictures. Problem is not even taste: it will not handle well. If you want a hardtail w/100mm of suspension dont build an early 90s classic frame. That is a very small frame, suited for 1m 65cm at max.

I would place a shorter stem and slide the saddle back. It will give much better handling.

The fastback seatstays... fillet brazed fork.. everything on this frame is ultra high end. Love the old geometry shimano brakes.

The other day i was watching on youtube an early Bontrager race light build. The shop was lovely and i could feel the love from the owner/ mechanic for the frame. The list of parts he chose for the build had great high end parts like Ringle hubs and Ritchey cranks but other than the salsa...

Cyclone is U brake while Psyclone has cantis

12in is fine. I have a bike w 12in BB

These pics are making me miss my Mojo. Its in another continent and i am riding my fat chance wicked which isnt bad but the mojo is a better bike.

On another note, lower the brake cable straddle: low profile cantis need a low cable straddle to perform well.

Check the bb height against Ibis specs. It's all about that number. 420 is ok. I would look for 430 but 420 could be fine. Stem is too short. They used 120/135/150 mm. A 71 degr. head angle w that short stem will make the front too nervous. A longer stem will calm things down.

I always look at the BB drop when i think fork length. If there isnt any bb drop i will try a shorter fork.

Heavier just like me. Maybe call it "mature". It looks good (unlike me) and that's the most important.

The fork... ooh baby.. fillet brazed?

I believe that generation, built w/ Prestige, is the lightest Mojo frame. My favourite color as well. I would buy another frame just for this color, and build it all NOS shimano m 737.

Those cooks are seriously sexy beasts.

I love the 987s but this bike is from an older generation of cantis. Old geo touring cantis. Easier to adjust. I want to pair those w shimano slr levers on my Fat Chance. Also, 6sp baby. Very cool softride.

1989 is my golden year for vintage MTB. Standard diameter steel tubes, thumbshifters, old geometry cantis. Right before everything starts looking the same.

Bike is silver so it color matches easily.

Please don't repaint. it looks very cool w the patina going

Shimano stuff is simple and works.
