I purchased this the other year from eBay it was my second Shock a Billy and by far the rarest. Its a 1994 Fat Chance Shock a Bill that was raced in the 1994 Downhill World championships by Casey Kunselman and I have the original purchase receipt from Casey to the original purchaser.
Its one of about 5 that were made when Fat Chance were prototyping new designs to replace the AMP rear end. In the end they made the multi linkage all steel one which is a beautiful bike and rides lovely.
I did a bit of investigation and got in touch with Casey to ask a few questions, he said it was a blast from the past and great to see it was still going. Back in the day according to him and a few others it would have had XTR M900 brakes, shifters, cranks etc and Ringle turquoise or tie dyed stem, hubs and other bits and a black chris king headset. It also had a prototype sand cast Rock Shox fork on it for the WC's that were anodised red, it was the fork before the Judy.
I will get a spec sheet up over the next few days.
Here are a few snaps from yesterday. Its changed a lot since I got it and its far from finished but the rest of the parts will take me a long time to track down.
