They don't show up often, but with everyone "needing" 650b, 29, etc., etc., 26" MTBs are occasionally treated as if they were boat anchors. The hardtail Scott Pro that I just missed sold for $250. ...

Squeeze, glad you got those pics to work. I wouldn't say the hoods are "as comfortable" as the platforms present day brifters create, and I have no experience with modern non brifter aeros, but the...

I'm going to have to side with the OP here. The dirt drop stem is elegant in a way that a bunch of bolts just is not. I had mighty issues getting a Soma Hwy One through the DA stem on my Team Miyata...

Very good eye, frantik. The burgundy appears to be a repaint, not a particularly good one, and the cream color matches more closely the 1990 color (and the 1990 fork Isa dead ringer for this one)....
