I’m not sure if I posted this before. It’s a ‘94 Slingshot. It’s got a 650B front wheel I built from parts. It’s an XT hub and it turns out I could change the 3x lacing to radial on use the same spokes from 26 inch. That fits fine in the old ‘suspension corrected’ rigid slingshot fork. Box v-brakes work fine on a 26 to 650b conversion.
It’s XTR 11 speed drivetrain with a normal 26 wheel in the back. It’s got some super tall stem on it, an old Forte (Nashbar house brand) dropper, and Ritchie bars. The stem might be Crust.
I mostly take it to the hardware store. I’m not totally in love with it but it’s a head turner. Back in ‘94 and earlier these are actually pretty good.
