Looking for the year and model of this Rocky Mountain... Blizzard, I believe. White bike with an Aboriginal BC paint scheme. Similar to this shirt. Anyone?

Exactly what he said.

I don't own a Kona (would love to though) but I had to read this thread only because I knew gil would drop a set of decals in here out of nowhere. Quick plug for him here - I know there are many places to get these but gil's are top quality and he delivers - fast! If it's going to be a...

I bought 4 tequila shots after a dozen pints and now need to buy a new shirt due to the mud that somehow streaked the front of the one I was wearing last night when I tried to toboggan down a wet hill head first ..... with no toboggan. beats having to explain a 25lb frame with crap bit...

I have two more in the garage .......... an oxygen race and a slayer ....... I may be ahead now in the count but I think you have a couple that can put many of mine to shame. Quality, not quantity ...........

The "family"

for what it's worth, Gil's decals are amazing. He sends extras of the head tube logos but the smaller of the two is the one that is the correct size for the factory original on the head tube and the seat tube. Some folks put the larger one on the head tube but it's all personal preference...

It's either an 88 Fusion upgraded to the component specs of the 89 or an 89 Fusion painted to the 88 colour specs. Here's the reason why it's not a Hammer and why I know those are not the original stickers. The reason I say it's been re-stickered is because those decals are from 90 to...

I wouldn't shim that seat post. That's the reason why so many of the Cirrus's had cracks at the QR. Lots of people found that replacement posts at 30.4 were a pain to find so they used shims and a common post size - and those caused the cracks due to the need to really snug them up.

Don't sand bast it unless you intend to paint it!!! If you do, don't use sand, you'll need walnut shells or something that won't penetrate the alum.

My Cirrus has a 30.4 seat post - just pulled it out to verify. As for the anodizing, you either have to polish the frame as best you can and live with it or you have to remove it all. You'll find that as you polish it up, the peeled portions of the anodizing will show up even more...

All of those frames have clear anodizing as a frame protector. Also - Are you certain you need a 27.0 seatpost? I'm positive mine is a 30.6 or something like that. Will double check tonight for you (our time). I'd hate to see you source one out and find it's too small. 27.0 are normally...

I'd be inclined to remove the fork and give it a good cleaning and inspect that rust. I'd hate to see the fork snap and you wind up ruining that bike, and possibly injuring yourself too. Tange decals can be re-created, riders can't. Remove all the rust you can and give it a good spray with...

What a great find!!! That's an 89. 88 had the U brake under the chain stays. 90 had V brakes. Curious what the plans are with this one and what is / isn't functional given it was stored in a damp shed. From the pics, it looks like a good cleaning is about all it needs.

Sounds like a proxy would just delay the shipping. Why not just use a sniper site? It helps to keep the price lower instead of placing you high bid early on and the seller keeps bumping it up with a secondary account. Sniper sites take your bid up to a week in advance and post your max bid in...

I knew also - Paid $40.00 a few years ago for an all original 87 Blizzard with the "factory options" in mint condition. (still ride her) (that would be her as my avatar)

That's the Bill B frame - I wonder why they have it as the 2010 Flatline. (can't imagine it would take the big drops without big problems) That is a gorgeous piece of metal though. I wonder how many frames were never put into production, like this one, with so much character.

The head tube is VERY cool on the Suzi Q ...........

here's my herd. 92 Thunderbolt, 93 Equipe, 97 Blizzard, 93 Blizzard, 88 Avalanche, 94 Hammer, 91 Cirrus and 87 Blizzard

i just noticed that all of those bikes are yours. (this is what happens when you drool over bikes on the internet at work - neither the posts or the work gets full attention)
