At the last expo in philly I spent the most time drooling over chapman - and he was such a nice dude. Looking forward to seeing that one.

Most of mine are in my Flickr.
I am in the process of transferring/dismantling that site.
I am setting up a new revised site that is password protected.
I'm pretty much finished posting fotos here, other than "for sale" items.
I keep finding my bikes for sale on CL around the country...........
No point to feeding that stupidity.
Any forum members that want to stop by and ride one one of bikes would always be welcome.

I think the Bridgestone will be gone by year end and the way my 13 year old is growing the BMC may be his soon. If that happens I'll be all MUSA.

Amazing ride and nimble for a 30 lb. mtb.

Massive headtube/downtube junction.
The dropouts are super sweet.
Cool pivot set up.
Did you buy yours new?
They weren't all that easy to find when I was looking.
I ended up with a newer Yeti SB5c and sold my Niner to a friend.
Great decision.

The problem for me is I really enjoy looking for, fixing/building and talking about bikes. They tend to accumulate and then I feel claustrophobic and things get sold...its a cycle (no pun intended) that gets repeated over and over...

My signature stays up to date. Prices, for the current herd, all over the map.
85 Raleigh Competition, $100 + about $300 in parts (mostly the wheel build). All OEM would remain at $100.
87 Radac, $60 f/f/hs + about $250 in parts, acquired over time and not specifically for the build.
88 Ironman, probably $360 mex, including frame, as all parts are part of different part-outs.
80 Carbon-R, let's just say a shade under $800, but for a 17-lb CF bike, not bad. I'm working on spending another $150 net to go sub-17 (CF wheels)

Your Yeti SB 95 is a beast of a bike.
Amazing ride and nimble for a 30 lb. mtb.
Way, way overbuilt frameset in a good way.
Massive headtube/downtube junction.
The dropouts are super sweet.
Cool pivot set up.
Did you buy yours new?

I ended up with a newer Yeti SB5c and sold my Niner to a friend.
Great decision.

I love that bike too --- I bought it new through Jenson at the tail end of 2014
ITs admittedly a 30 #'er with Kenda Nevegal tires, --- but with Small Block 8 tubeless tires - it clocks in at 28.5 ! -- (but the SB8 tires are admittedly special purpose , so it usually wears the nevegals, which are a heavy beast of a tire also
--- I'm a Clydesdale, so I just wanted a big luxury cruiser I didn't have to worry about -- it fits the bill, ---
The SB5c I would think is more of a good thing -- for the life of me I cant tell the difference between the suspension designs
Here's a YEti that is not as burly -- steel looptail frame - weighs 24 lbs with pedals -- I know that is a common hardtail weight now in the carbon age, but in 1997, this was a feather for a front suspended steelie

I've had the SB out to Moab and I will be out there again next summer.
The only thing my bike lacks is a good rider.
All the mtb I need.
Maybe switching to Maxxis Ardents/Ikons.....
As for the pictured Yeti, I want it.
So very hard to find.

Thanks, and thank you for the recommending him. About a year ago you posted a picture of one of his bikes with bi-lam lugs and they were like nothing I have seen before. I wanted something a little different than the usual lugged steel bike and his style was exactly what I wanted.

I wanted one bike that could ride on both the road and crushed limestone trail that we have around here. After a 50 mile ride on the road I can say Joel nailed the fit and it handles beautifully on the road. I can't bring myself to get it dirty on the trail yet, I'll wait another week before the new car smell wears off to do that.

No problemo.
That is one seriously gorgeous machine he built for you and I love the way you built it.
I'm just a little bit jealous........
p.s. How does it measure up to your BMC?
I think that bike is another gift from the bike gods.

I have never done a custom and the whole process is really interesting. Besides the wait it is great process and you get everything you wanted in a bike. I went custom when Rivendell did not want to build the single top tube AHH that I originally planned.
It is a little lighter that the BMC and the fit is more traditional with only a bit of seat post showing. I had asked for room for 38c on the clockwork, but I think it will take the same size as the BMC. The BMC is more overkill for the riding I have been doing but it is too well designed to ever get rid of it. I could just use 2 wheel sets on it would be all I need in a bike.
