Hi Armand, lovely bikes, thanks for sharing. Plenty of care and attention to detail evident in those builds and the photos you linked.
Curious if you (or any of the vintage MTB oldheads on the list) have any idea why the larger model has a chainstay mounted U-brake vs the rear canti posts on the smaller bike? Was this a factory-specced difference between sizes? Random variation? Custom post fab job? Almost picked one of these up locally a few weeks back, but my U-brake bias got in the way. best of luck with the sale, -Jake "u-brake-it-u-don't-buy-it" in Oakland, CA On Friday, July 19, 2024 at 12:54:22 PM UTC-7 [email protected] wrote: > What?
