Alpinestars Al-Mega DX EOS 1991

As a follow on from previous post ... tyres (Smokes for the moment) and tubes are on the wheels now and I almost have a rolling chassis!

It's been a quiet few weeks on the build front, possibly because the next task I set myself was polishing up the old DX cranks ... But Saturday I pulled my finger out. Difficult to get started, but a joy to see the results! Couple of pics below to show the before and after:

Looking really nice mate the paint on clockwork is like a pearly white I would go with yellow stem if you can get to bring color up from frame but stunning up to now

First time posting. I have this same bike. All original. Even the mega bite tires. It looks like a custom bottle cage was made to fit in the frame. It’s dirty from a mountain bike last night
Where did you get the frame decals from?

Yours looks good

Great example that one. Fantastic to have it entirely catalogue spec. Just be wary of that stem if you’re riding it with any purpose. A very high percentage failed from what I know. Might be as well to keep the original somewhere safe and stick on something more solid for the trails.

Decals came from Gil at Retrodecals. I get all my decals from him. Great quality reproductions.

Every time I see these makes me want one more knew I should have bought one of the 2 fam Allen

È la prima volta che scrivo. Ho la stessa bici. Tutta originale. Persino le gomme Mega Bite. Sembra che sia stato fatto un portaborraccia su misura per adattarsi al telaio. È sporca a causa di una mountain bike di ieri sera.
Dove hai preso gli adesivi per il telaio?

I just brought home my ALMega, and it also has Megabite tires. I thought they weren't original, because the catalog says it should have Force Quads.
I'm trying to get rid of the Marzocchi fork and get the original rigid fork, but it seems like something out of Mission Impossible...
