This is my first complete do it all myself build from scratch. It started off as a 1992 Specialized Crossroads Trail frame with Tange 1 steel tubing and ended up as this.
I had frame, fork, and cranks sandblasted and powder coated. It is built up with a hodge podge of stuff I already had, ebay/craigslist finds, and few of our favorite internet retailers. It has New ultegra 8 speed bar end shifters, NOS Deore XT rear derailure, NOS Deore DX front derailure, 105 52/42/32 triple crankset, New Cane Creek SCR-5 brake levers, NOS Diacompe 986 cantilever brakes, Nitto Technomic Stem, Ritchey Logic Headset, Zoom Alloy Bars, Uno seatpost, Selle Italia Trans-Am Xo saddle, and depending on what I decide, either my ultegra/open pros, or Mavic CXP 11's with Coda Hubs.
I hope you all like it and thank you to everyone in this mechanic forum who helped me with ideas and tech support along the way.
