I'm about to buy a 1995 arc frame. The one with 1 1/4 headtube. I guess it's Colorado made. I want to be shure, it's a "real" Yeti.
Did Schwinn use the 1 1/4 headtube when they bought Yeti in 1995?
What would be period correct part's for a frame like this? Threaded fork is all wrong, or what?
I have a complete xtr m900 set that i think would be nice. Also some IRC Yeti tires, Ringle moby, Raceface turbine etc...
So the big question is wich fork, stem and headset i should use.

Sorry, no pic, but the colour scheme is like this one:

Mmmm ...

Fork: Judy ( if possible the team painted ones )

Stem: Ringlé Zooka turquoise

Headset: King or Ringlé Slamma Jamma.
 
i have a rockshox judy SL fork painted in yeti colours, with 1/14 ahead steerer.it requires a rebuilt but all there, contract me if interested.
 
If you plan to go historical correct the choice must be Manitou 2.

Manitou was always the main fork brand for Yeti even though Rockshox was used in brochures and ad's. There was never a "team color scheme" for forks back in the good old days.
 
You can get Yeti yellow Ringle stems if you look really hard, I know this cos I had two of them back in the day but sold them (without realising how much they'd probably sell for these days!).
 
Just been trying to find some photo's of Missy at Cap D'Ail, my memory may be failing however thought she was running Judy's with her Yeti at the time, sadly can't find any photo's on the net. :(
