Yeti ARC

[RobMac]

I was sold this frame as a 2004 but today I've found out it may in fact be a 1999 Yeti ARC Pro XTR in team colours. This has made me have a rethink about the build, do I try and keep it fairly period correct on do I just go a head and follow my nose? :?

Re:

i think go with your nose
i built my 09/10 ARC with 98/99 parts for the old-school look
it's such a classic frame it can carry of retro or modern guises with ease
either way, it will be a sweet riding bike!

Re:

Up until I discovered the year was wrong I had a full set of Formula disc brakes laid aside for it
and a nice pair of black (disc only) Fox F90 RL forks. Hence my rethink to V's and disc/Vee forks :?

It looks a nice frame. The detail in the join between the chain stays looks lovely. The Fox forks sound a good match to me.

Makes me want a Yeti, that looks just lush.. Fox forks for sure!
