It's a great looking frame, although that saddle is REALLY out of place. Not fond of the stem either.

Pricing is hopeful.

Drooool....

Wow, I love that paint and the name of the bike is over the top cool. I cannot afford it right now, but I want it!

I agree the saddle is an eye sore, and id' have to make a few other changes to make it mine, but the frame set is oh so nice.

Pricing is hopeful.

didn't rumpfy get over $1800 for the frame and fork on his goat just a couple weeks back?

it's a sweet looking bike, and my size as well....hmmm, can't do it now though.

the fat chance sales spiel is unlike anything i;ve ever read!

"1987 Vintage Fat Chance Wicked Team frame, fork and stem. Serial number 745W08. All original custom team paint in flawless unscratched condition. Bike is built with almost all NOS parts in perfect condition. Bike has one ride on it. 18" frame. No issues. Super riding bike. Museum caliber collectible rare early mountain bike. Original BB. Flat rate shipping in the lower 48 states is &75.00. Inquire for other regions. *********In response to some emails from Euro trash, I am listing the components on the bike. 80's Deore 7 speed hubs. 80's Deore 7 speed thumbshifters. 80's Deore XT brake levers. 80's Deore XT crankset and rings. 80's Fat Chance BB. 80's Deore rear derailleur. Early 90's XTR front derailleur. 80's Deore XT pedals. 80's Shimano cantilevers. Early 90's Shimano cartridge headset. Early 90's Mavic rims. 80's Uno seat post. New WTB Velociraptor tires. New Specialized Bulge bars. New seat. **********In response to other forum members who said it was a shame I was not describing the bike more and doing a poor job of "selling" it, I will now try to placate them with a flurry of unnecessary B.S.....This amazing one of a kind Fat Chance Team bike was personalized for none other than the world famous team rider Richard. You know him? I sure as hell don't. The paint was lovingly applied by the master paintsmiths at D+D for Fat City. It glows like magic with little tiny sparkles that catch the eye in a way that can almost make you feel like you are swimming in pools of fairy dust. The rare and super special box style team fork has extra welded gussets on the inner blades that make this fork strong enough to hold up the Empire State building. The Salsa roller stem is personalized too, and exudes mystical powers when looked at. The frame is meticulously welded of special chromoly that is harvested from mines in the Amazon. It takes an average of 14 years to harvest enough Chrome and Moly to mix together to create the tubing for one frameset. Oh, and did I mention riding this bike cures cancer? The bike is so pristine since it was hermetically sealed in silk and kept in isolation on the space station for the past 30 years. I only rode it once to cure my prostate cancer, and I must say, now that I am cancer free I am enjoying a much better sex life. This spectacular bike will actually increase the size of that certain part of the male anatomy! I was thinking of donating it to President Elect Obama's cabinet since it is purported that this frame is the key to World peace, and that the warm glow of its paint was seen by three wise men 2000 years ago over a manger in Bethlehem. Merry Christmas."

talked to Russ about it. he remembered the paint but not a name. probably a one-off or not enough made to give it a proper name.
