MacRetro Rider
This is my first retro build, frame was an impulse E-bay purchase just before last christmas as i was looking for a lighter bike to commute on than my LTS.
Most parts are not period correct and some are modern so i've got my flame proof undercrackers on , cranks and pedals are temporary, have a set of STX MD ones to go on when i get new midleburn rings for them.
The modern carbon bars are a bit too narrow for me too at 22" so will be replacing these with posibly wide Answer Hyperlights or similar.
Modern stickers on it, i prefer the one on the downtube to the thin older style but not sure about the one on the top tube :?
Frame - 92 Orange Clockwork, 17"
Fork - Tange Switchblade
Headset - FSA
Stem - Syncros 150mm
Handlebar - ABR carbon
Grips - Syncros
Brakes - XT M739
Brake Levers - XT M739
Shifters - XT M739
Front Derailleur - XT M739
Rear Derailleur- XT M739 Short cage
Cassette - Shimano 12 - 23
Chain - SRAM Octalink (i think)
Cranks - Ugly FSA ones
Chainrings - FSA 32 middle, Shimano 44 outer, no granny.
Bottom Bracket - UN-71
Pedals - Maoooosive Gusset jobbies, (temporary)
Quick Releases- X-lite
Rims - Mavic 121
Hubs - White industries
Tyres - DMR Moto 2.2
Saddle - Original Flyte
Seatpost - Pass, quite light, and it holds the seat up
Weight - 23. Lb, (guess)
Thank's to Sithlord for the XT STI shifters/levers, Corduroyboy for the XT brakes and front and rear mechs, and Manitou 916 for the Tange switchblades
