Now Sold...Thanks for intrest....Cheers...Bontrager Race 1996
with Rock Shox Mag 21SL Titanium
Here is a fully loaded, classic, amazing, vintage mountain bike, handbuilt by Keith Bontrager in Santa Cruz. This was a time which will most likely never be repeated, the peak of craftsmanship in steel mountain bike frames built on a small but very popular scale........ if you're reading this you probably already know.
Yes its a Race and not a Race Lite. The Race frame is intended for more aggressive riders. These riders won't mind a few hundred extra grams to have a very durable frame.
The facts:
Frame: Bontrager Race
Size: Med: Seat Tube C to C 15in C to Top 17in
Top Tube C to C 21 Effective 22in
Colour: Blue
Fork: Rock Shox Mag 21SL Titanium
About the fork is not much to say - legendary Mag 21SL Titanium - it is still the lightest suspension fork on the market. At the very beginning just available for racers. Later at a very high prize available at the bikeshops the fork remained a very high prized jewel and a collectors item on its own.
Bontrager frames were specialy designed for Rock Shox suspension fork, so this frame with that fork is the ultimate combination.
New parts are:
Bontrager Superstock Wheelset
Race Face Evolve Crank Set
Race Face SRX Bottom Bracket
Sram 951 Chain
XT 9sp Cassette
Lx Rapid Fire Plus STI
XT front and read Derailleur
Cane Creek Head Set
So what you get is a super cool vintage bike with contempory parts. Beside the new parts there are used XT V-Brakes (new breakpads) and LX Break Levers.
Bought on Ebay recently, Was advertised as a Large, but it is a Med. Just want what I paid for it £300 plus £25 shipping, and £10 if you paypal. REALLY NICE condition GREAT DEAL
