94 FSR Stumpy

I posted this in "Saved from the dump" when I got it and despite being way to small, mostly seized drivetrain, full suspension which I don't do, etc.

It cleaned up well enough, new tires, soaked down the drivetrain with PB and it came around, Brooks, raised the bars and added flat pedals.

Got it all functioning and took it for a good ride, "survey says" all good, relatively speaking, I was surprised it rode as well as it did for me. The front fork has no give, may be seized, fine by me, can't stand front suspension and am probably never going to actually go MT biking so....

As it turned out.






And as can be pointed out, the SP is still where it was as it came to me, still not up far enough but the bars are as high as they can be without new cables and its not far off for me.
