1997 DMR Trailstar

[IDB1]

Still not finished but imo it's passable (unless you've been looking at recent Yeti threads. . ).
Bought and built for Mrs IDB1 and early indications are favourable..

Still needs purple chain tugs, chainring bolts and seatpost clamp, shim for the USE seatpost and a better rear brake..

 

[marin man]

ohhhh pretty love the purple

 

[MAXTHEROTTI]

thats rubbish
















your lawn is in dire need of water and some grass seed wouldnt hurt either


nice bke tho

 

[IDB1]

that's the best part of the lawn

It does have to contend with 4 dogs, Winter's only just over and we've only been here a few months... gimme a chance....

More purpleness required on the bike.. a little cleaning and stuff too..

That rear brake is bugging me somewhat.. the levers are for canti's I think so it's a little spongey.. bought a shorty V but it won't fit with the 26" wheel.

But she likes it and that's what matters most..

 

[FST4RD]

What is the bar/stem combo? Is it a 1 piece unit?

 

[IDB1]

Aye.. . it's a Fred Salmon combo...

 

[coomber]

Is your seatpost the wrong way around?

 

[IDB1]

Could be ... :?

Getting replaced soon anyway.. once I measure it and get the right shim for the USE post.

 

[coomber]

Aha.

Nice and clean build so far though chap.

 

[letmetalktomark]

Horrible .... bleugh ....




Looks cool built up like that with the purple anno.

IIRC the seatpost in there is a 25.8 and is the DMR original one.

Need to get that headbadge added
