Re: New project, 1993 Yeti ARC - I am very very happy

Here's another link viewtopic.php?f=6&t=223525&start=20#p1832877

Using that thread could be the biggest mistake of all ^^^
No more than a page of interesting info mashed up with fifteen pages+ of tripe :shock:

If I can build mine half as nice as yours turned out I'll be a very happy man. I don't think I will be using any purple ano so it'll be interesting to see if it still has bling factor when complete. I do have a few bits stashed away though just incase it looks wrong without it

I did over do the anno on mine but in my defence where I ended up was actually a million miles away from where I envisaged the build going, I think having an idea of where you want to end up but the flexibility to change things here and there isn't necessarily a bad thing.... its all about the journey.


this is what I did with my spare decal.... used it on another build (fitted a treat) and helped to scratch another 1¼ Yeti itch

Looking good Tim! Did you pop rivet the cable guides yourself? Also, what Manitou fork brace, diameter and length are you needing? I have quite a few. I wish I had know prior to sending the bar and seat post.

Thanks Jason, yes I pop riveted the guides on.

I think I'm getting the steerer issue sorted but just in case it doesn't happen, I'm after 1 1/4", around 155mm total length with a few centimetres of thread.

I've got new elastomers on route from suspensionforkparts.net and the threaded insert from the Sotto Voce headset should be here soon from the original owner in Spain
