The basics of the ride were already there when I got it off EBay. I swapped out the old wheels (six speed) for a more modern 8 speed setup.
A basic rundown:
SR Litage bonded aluminum frame
Suntour barend shifters in friction mode
Suntour rear derailleur
XT front derailleur
Salsa high rise stem
Phil Wood bottom bracket
Mavic crank (46-36-24)
Rhynolite rims on Deore LX hubs
Dia-Compe levers with Mafac canti's
IRC Metro tires (26 x 1.5)
Nice old Selle Turbo saddle
