    Mavic MTB tribute

    Are you looking to sell the hubs? It’s going to be a real pain to find the parts for a corresponding group. Turbo is there, seatpost is silver, can’t tell which it is but aren’t mavic seatposts black?

    Mavic MTB tribute

    Because I purchased the frame set last week, the full bike (which I haven’t seen for sale in years) pops up on my local site a few days ago for next to nothing. Looks like I have a full bike and an extra frame set now hahaha. It’ll make a nice conversation with the road and mountain side by side

    Mavic MTB tribute

    The tribute is underway. I’m having the decals made from the SM2000 in these colors. And yes, I bought the road frame simply to mock up the coloring on the mtb exactly. Instead of trying to use the road in a mtb setting, I have decided to begin the difficult hunt of old school mavic Gao Dakar...

    Beast question

    1989, going back in the vault lol. The sm600 and sm900 were both BOTE geometry. I think after that is when they really started to make it the 1 model and not a separate line

    Beast question

    Hey! You also have a few other model that could fall under the BOTE geometry. I know there’s an M600 and I think an M900 that had the high BB and slanting top tube. Like said above though, your very limited if you want the 1 1/4

    1991 Cannondale SE2000

    I picked this up for in a buy including a museum quality SE1000. There are no marks or blemishes on this bike. It was kept in a dark basement therefore the green and pink aren’t even faded in the slightest. The asking price was out of my budget but reasonable. I made a very low offer and was...

    I think you guys are right and it’s going to be black M900.

    Delta v omega

    It’s been a long time but I’m on the home stretch. All new xtr grey cables/housing arrived and the NOS rear right M900 canti did as well. So the seatpost is left. M900 is black so I think I’m going 910 so it’s silver. Now the question is do I keep the stem black or move to polished like...

    Mavic MTB tribute

    I right there with you man, it’s a tough decision on where to start. The zoot would be the simpler build since everything mavic is tough to find and expensive as heck. I have some of the yellow parts I could use too like a hyperlite and flexstem. For decals, I’d have to find someone that...

    Mavic MTB tribute

    So I’m debating doing something a bit different and building a tribute MTB to match the 91 mavic SR1000. My buddy does paint so he can do that part. What I’m running into is brakes. I can’t find anything in cantis made by mavic. I can do a triple starfish crank with 853 long cage rear that...

    1993? M500 color identification?

    This color was I believe offered in 2 different bikes but I think only in 93. It definitely has a heavy shift in color with correct lighting. It came in the m500 and also the H400. What size are you looking for?

    Se2000 and Se1000

    Some of the brothers and sisters that will share wall space. Varying degrees of completion

    Se2000 and Se1000

    They were at a much higher price but the owner wanted them to go to a person that would appreciate them. Just an SM600 and SM400 left now
