Bought it for $200AUD quite some time ago from a guy who bought it new in Switzerland, took it with him to America and finally to Australia where it's sat in his garage ever since (the top tube still has the original shop he bought it new from and they're still in business today!).
Took my good time sourcing a full XTR groupset and the Spinergy wheels as icing on the cake! Original FOX rear shock had a hairline crack in it sadly, and I've failed to find a replacement so I'm running a cheap AliExpress shock on there just to get the build rolling.

I scrolled back and forth through all the photos more times than I’d like to admit. Thanks for sharing this beauty.
Amazing build. Great job. Real beauty.
Gorgeous build, what a time capsule.
On another note, you’re not planning on mountain biking with those wheels are you?
Absolutely top-notch retro porn !
Absolutely amazing! Brings back memories of my childhood droolings at the local bike shop window!!
Joli travail, et pourquoi pas un magic crankset ?
