Early 90's Dean Colonel Ti frame. Disc tab added on by prior owner.
Azonic Outlaw wheelset
IRC Trailbear kevlar bead 2.5 tires (fits just fine even when I really crank on it)
Truvativ Stylo crank
Kona P2 fork
Hayes 9 brakes
XT RD
Deore FD
LX Shifters
XT cassette
Cane Creek Headset

Bikes: 96 gary fisher 'utopia' : 99 Softride 'Norwester'(for sale), 1972 Raleigh Twenty. Surly 1x1 converted to 1x8, 96 Turner Burner

I picked this Surly 1x1 with a better-than-decent Marzocchi fork up on ebay last month. I had it converted from SS to a 1x7. I added the racks and aero bars with
my radio strapped to that. Took it out on the trail today for the first time since the re-build. The thing rode great.
Next up is a new paint job.

Santa Cruz Superlight? Although the tubing on the frame
looks different. I wish I had one.

My '08 Stumpy FSR shod with new Crossmax ST wheelset. Need to get a Chris King bottom bracket before I put on the RaceFace crankset I got for a steal then the upgrade-itis will be done.
