96’ Giant Yukon – did the thing and what a joy it has been

Shout out to the Salt Lake City bike collective for making most of this possible

Full parts list:
– bars, saddle and stem I got out of the bins for $10 at the bike collective

-swapped older gen BB for a shimano UN-73 I was able to find in some buckets at the collective

-swapped super rusty headset to a tange-seiki headset

-profile design quill to threadless adapter

-Microshift 1×10 drivetrain

-sta-tru 25 tubeless wheelset

-kept the OG brakes because they were the only part on the bike that still worked

– Vitoria mezcal 26×2.1

Rides like an absolute dream and can’t believe I haven’t done something like this sooner
