What to do, what to do....
I got this a while back from a guy. I had built it up using modern parts, but I have since reclaimed these for other projects. So I'm slowly looking for parts to go on this frame. I already have a nice silver Rocky Mountain stem. I also have a red chris king headset, which I think would look great on this bike. And I have several forks that could go on it. There's the Manitou 2, Pace RC35 MXC or RockShox Mag 21. I guess the Manitou and the Mag21 are too early, the Pace fork is period correct.
But my biggest dillemma is the paint. It looks ok, but if you look closely, it is a bit battered. The rear white part seems to be resprayed. On the left side, I'm missing a letter in the decals, so it says "Rock Mountain".
