91/92 Bontrager OR Race Lite - immaculate again

[Rambo Mambo]

Needs a chain but impressive weight nonetheless

Lovely frameset and choice parts. If I was being fussy I'd say the black rings and cranks against the black portion of the frame looks a bit 'heavy'

Thank you. I hear you. I may try silver rings although it may look totally different with all black wheels and tyres. We shall see I guess.

Agreed. Fully 'blacked out' might make a big difference

I shall never tire of seeing recognition like this..

That's pretty cool! I had an immaculate set of silver Joystix that I dearly regret selling. I still think they're my favourite looking cranks.

Cheers bud! This is anything but OEM but the 95/96er is. Check out the build here.

Thanks! Yeah, the mix is definitely not OEM, but the 95/96 bits are solid. Loving how it’s coming together!

Just messing aboot with this. This build is going too fast. I best slow down lest I get bored of it and move it on.

Not settled on the final iteration but here are some better photos.
