Hello,
I'm back from my very first project a 1994 MBK M344 it was a sort of a training for me and as everything went well I decided to go further and bought a titanium frame !
It's a 1997 Voodoo d-jab 20,5" 1kg840 frame, it wasn't expensive because it's not in the best shape, a lot of scratches and particularly weirds deep scratches on the chain-stay not made by a chain idk what it could be, I had to take off the stickers and the metal badge is full of glue here's pics from the seller :
After a good hour with some red Scotch Brit and following some tutorial I managed to renew a bit the frame I'll try to do a bit more when I'll have the new stickers and all the components, I took of the sitckers with Acetone it went well but for the glue on the badge it's another problem even the acetone doesn't clean that if you have any advice !
I found him a beautiful fork Fox F100X Terralogic with the appropriate steerer lenght (20,5cm) and most importantly V-Brakes compatible, it's too much travel for the 80mm frame but I honestly don't think it'll do any damage to the frame
I'm waiting to receive a new headtset and I'll start the rebuild with the pieces from my first build you can find it here :

If anyone have any advice for the glue on the badge
And also I don't know if I'll put back the stickers and if yes original white stickers or in black :?:
cheers !
