1996 Fat Chance Titanium

[northerndave]

What with Rick and Matts Fat Ti's knocking round Readers MTB's I got inspired to dust off my very own Ti. Picked this frame up as a full bike a few years ago from a chap in California, it's a 96/97 S/M with the regular stays. Saratoga built.

When it arrived it was mainly M750, Thomson and other modern parts. I stripped it down, sold most of the parts and then subsequently kitted it out with Ringle, Pauls, Middleburn, Ti bars and Flite Evo (love these saddles). I decided to try and keep it as much raw metal as possible with the exception of a few little ano parts.

Enjoy

Very nice too. You don't see as many with red decals, usually their blue.

 

[northerndave]

Yep, red and black decals don't appear as much ...

Interestingly the pic I saw of Chris Chance out on a ride he was on one of these later Ti's with red decals ...
