1990 Yo Eddy Team with Proto Type Campy custom

[bushpig]

It would like flash with a moonrise fade paint job. The current finish is a little tatty.

The details on the paint look like something Leni Fried would do.

It's a team comp, not a yo eddy.

I did elude to the team comp having the g.p. wilson dropouts, so there was that chance. Though, it does say Yo Eddy on the frame, in its original condition, and the tubing looks a bit thicker than I remember it being on the team comp I owned.

Still, awesome bike, and congrats on the pick up
Any current photos of it? Did you keep the campy headset? Especially interested in the lower cup/fork race, and how it is set up? Thanks

BP, the current finish is part of the charm; touch it up, but don't change it.

Glad to see I wasn't the only one to fall in love with this bike, at first sight. Have not done much looking for bikes, lately. Last night, I needed a diversion.

Btw, NEMBA (New England Mountain Bike Association), was the first mountain bike related forum I joined, many years ago.

Is this the same headset?
1" threaded, 24 tpi, british thread

perhaps not.

Thanks. BP was kidding. Decals often does not tell the whole story. For example, the only suntour component is the seatpost.

As for the build, it's staying as is except maybe the tires and saddle as I have been riding it. Oh, I also got a campy seatpost for it but haven't decided to swap it or not. Basically, I can't bear to change a thing is what I'm saying.

It's a beautiful bike and even more beautiful in person. The original owner is an outstanding person and her contribution to mountain biking has been immense.

Thanks for the good words, everybody!

It would like flash with a moonrise fade paint job. The current finish is a little tatty.

Something modern would also suit it great. I vote for an XT M770 -group and maybe disc tabs.
