1990 dolomite attitude.

Beautiful bike!! I love the build, and I think m900 was a very good choice.

Personally I'd go with the CNC cable hangers, but they both look very nice. I'm surprised shimano made that other cable hanger.... the hangers I remember from them were the shoddy flat ones with the sticker on them that came on every department store bike. Interesting to see stuff from a time when canti's were serious stuff in mountain biking.

this is killing me now, i ordered the bb spindle last week. i thought $30 postage it would be here by now.
so i just have to wait. and wait. etc.
if anyone has a 108mm spindle let me know.

i can finally breath a sigh of relief.
the bottom bracket turned up today.
so on saturday i will be putting up a shed,
this will keep the wife happy, then i can finally
finish this bike. and fulfill a 20 + year ambition.
to ride one of the most iconic bikes of the early 90's.
good things come to those who wait.

just spent the last couple of hours fitting the bottom bracket & getting the gears to shift. i've got to say i'm blown away by this bike.

here's a couple of the pace & the klein together.
i never thought i would be able to own 2 of my
all time favourite superbikes.

Well done

Well done, finally there. I hope to finish my Rascal this w/e but with the kids it is impossible to get sensible amounts of time. Just the cabling and chainset to go.

i thought i would post some pics of the bike being used.
went on a ride in the peaks on saturday with some other retro bikers.
had a great day, but coming down jacobs ladder was very harsh.
the weather was really very nice, a few light showers but very nice.

after the peaks ride, jacobs ladder took its toll on my brake pads & front tyre. so after replacing the tyre and i found some spare xtr brake blocks.
went for a ride into delamere and took a photo on the way home.
the bike is brilliant, i never get bored of this bike.
went into 12-50 bikes to get some brake blocks, and they were taking photo's of the klein.
