I have some old carbon bars, 25.6 or 26.1? and a super long stem from the 90s. I will check out my box of old parts later. |

I'll pass on carbon anything from back in those days that were not produced by Easton. Kinda scary. How much do you want for the Fire XC Lord Dood? Oh man. So fortunate I have many friends who are as stoked as I am in getting this thing put back together. An old buddy of mine from the Answer-Manitou days found a real rare treat that they put together at engineering back then. A Manitou Palmer Black fork in dual crown setup. Only 6 were ever made and never got out of MRD (Manitou Racing Department) cage. I hope it doesn't snap the head tube of the Wild Hare..lol. Almost there..... just waiting for the old Hayes to come unstuck so I could start rebuild the dedicated 22mm caliper. |

Harley, would you happen to still have the chainrings for the Topline cranks laying around somewhere? Also, I might take you up on that spring rear der tensioner. It's good for show. |

It's an Easton Monkey DH. I think original width of 22" or 23" |

So when do the retro bike club shredders dust off their mtb fossils and hit the dirt? Let's cruise. After 12 yrs in storage, she's still proving purty capable in all her 24 speed glory. Pretty proud of myself gutting and rebuilding the old Hayes mag brakes from the dead. Worked awesome on its maiden ride. |

So I would still like to sweep yours up. I'll Pm you when I come around your area. I have less and less desire to ride in SD with all your guys' access drama. LOL |
