[Tootyred]

Really for 200 notes and nobody's bitten his hand off.

Party is clearly over.....time to switch off the lights

If it was a little bigger…

It is my size, but no room, seriously no room… such a lovely frame though!!!

You say no room......but could you rearrange?

Ha! Already have +1 bike inbound with no room and this extra frame would mean my wife rearranges my face as opposed to me rearranging bikes!!!

Plus really needs the Gumbi forks which are super rare. Had a custom pair on my Zaskar with disc mounts in the mid 90s. A member on here bought them when I sold off all my old MTB stuff on eBay prior to me finding this delightful RetroBike site.

You can always get a replica set made.

Rare matching Fuquay rigid forks aside, do you know what the best axle-crown rigid length might be for this frame? Am guessing mid / later 1990s suspension would be RockShox Judy or Pace RC36 (70-90mm) would be a good match - which is what I was running around about that era?

Frame likley too compact for me, but the tt. does bring it just in realms of possibility.

What kind of earlier era frames would be of interest for trades?
