Retro Full Suss - The good, the bad and the ugly?

[DoctorRad]

Finally picked up my second JMC-stylee '95 S-Works FSR last night. Well used, a bit tatty and some chainsuck marks on the stay... shock probably dead, but generally not bad for £51. The bonus is that it comes with some 110/74 XT crank arms, just hope they come off and the BB isn't corroded in...!

Time to get some Z1s and the long-travel kit on it

late 90s is not retro .

The RTS and verlichi frames were probably the most successful full sus bike of the early 90s .
Cannondale , specialized and proflex were not bad but as good .

but for me the best full sus bike is the Sunn radical . Vouilloz and others have won many titles on it and even the 2009 version is not far from it in design .

Get it up in the For Sale section with some pics and a price. I'm sure someone would be willing to give it a loving home.
