Old School Mountain bike build...

Here is my Montare...I remember the ad in the magazines 20 years ago very fondly...
They depicted the bike going up a near vertical ascent touting the ultra shot elevated chainstay, and the Fisher Evolution system...
I just scored a super sweet set of spinergy wheels for it, and I have a full old school Deore XT thumbshifter drivetrain to go with it. The finishing piece will be the Girvin Crosslink fork...
Dont mind the renovation materials in the background... gotta keep the wife happy....

Colnago Titanium...Lux Oval Master....

Colnago Titanium...The Lux Oval Master.... Revered as the perfect Classics bike, and made from indestructible 6/4 Titanium...
The beautiful finish is done in TM11 otherwise known as the Landbouwkredeit Team color scheme...
When I first started building the bike I was trying to stay "period specific". After riding the bike I realize I could care less about "period" because this ride is so bad ass it deserves the best I can throw at it....
This bike is a beast... one of the stiffest bikes I have thrown a leg over, and yet surprisingly comfortable.
Yes those are 40mm Shamals, and yes they are clinchers... I dare you to find another set...
