Steel "Specialized Seqoia"
Frame was sold to me as a Specialized Seqoia frame.You can see the letters Seqoia on the frame and it has Ritchey drop outs.The collor looks a bit like titanium but it's not.
Build it up with:
Titanium handlebar
Hope stem and seatpost clamp
USE suspension seatpost
Specialized saddle
Rock Shoc Judy T2 fork
Shimano xt thumbshifters
Shimano xt 739 crankset
Shimano deore xtr fd-m901 front derailleur
Shimano xtr m900 cantilever brakes
Shimano xtr m900 hubs on Wolber tm18 rims
Ritchey megabyte wcs 2.35 front and Specialized teammaster 2.1 rear tyre
Shimano xtr rd-m952 silver edition rear derailleur
Chris King Rasta headset
tektro cnc brake handles
Ringle peace sign cablehanger
Most of the parts are new,nos or hardly used.

Welcome to C&V. A visually stimulated crowd.
Sounds really pic worthy.
Judy and Ti got me interested.
From my limited experience, prefer tires same size, but depends on where/what you ride.

I'd be interested in seeing a picture. Something doesn't line up here. The Ritchey dropouts and the component mix suggest late 90's. I'm not sure the Sequoia brand was used at that time, and I've never seen a Sequoia with a suspension fork. I suspect a previous owner did some customization.

The Faux Ti finish and Ritchey dropouts make me think Jamis dragon. I don't recall the dragon coming plated like that but Jamis did use that finish on a few bikes in the late '90s and early '00. At the time nobody else was really making steel hardtails with suspension forks anymore.
