Other than that, seeing as a shiiiiiitload of companies still make tires for them, I don’t think they’re dead at all lol.
Looks neat though. Orange/purple stand out against the frame well!

Super cool bike! Converting 90s to mtbs into cruising weekend touring adventure bikes has become one of my favorite things.
Currently working on a very similar setup for my girlfriend. Built upon a 1999 dean

26 may be dead in mass market bikes in the US, but that’s about it. I’ve bought far better rims and tires now than I ever saw in the 90s.
