1992 Orange Vitamin T. *Finished for now, 3/6/2010.*

Thought the back tyre was soft at first

- that'll be the front tyre

The forks were OEM apparently - but I agree they really don't do it justice - it felt really harsh I always thought.

Enjoy it anyway

Front tyre seems to be holding up well Ed but just about to change the tube

Yep, forks are the same as the ones on my Alu Elite and I've got a '93 MBUK that has a Vit-T with 'em. I was going to keep it rigid but I'm beginning to think some RC35's will suit it best.

Gaz... Gonna keep some purple but just not so much. I think I've got a black Syncros stem waiting for me at the Post Office depot that is destined for the T.

Just noticed in your profile to have it as '93 - strictly it was December 1992 apparently

Working on the theory that a Dec '92 frame wouldn't have been in the shops until '93. Thanks again for the sale Ed, time to get cleaning.

Quick Sunday update. Right, everything's been stripped and cleaned with the frame getting scrubbed with brillo then polished with T-Cut and the forks getting a serious Autosoling.

The wheels now have some lighter walled Wonder Dawgs, Syncros stem is on standby, M900's come up well, and the RC30's are on order.

Few pictures of the stripped frame and forks for the time being but I should have some more of the re-build up tomorrow.
