Up for grabs is my restoration project. Purchased the 17″ frame 3 years ago and have been painstakingly gathering the best M952 XTR I could find. As well as the original fork. Which is stock no speed springs or anything works like a champ. Rear shock as well. The paint is killer and still sparkles and shines its a real eye catcher. I have spent countless hours polishing the rear triangle and is free of any chainsuck marks on chainstay. The three scratches in pic are the only major imperfections $500.00 and I’ll ship anywhere on earth at your cost. Contact me for much nicer pics through email at fixiemasi@gmail.com. I don’t want to sell but unfortunately I have to.
Looks great. What did you use on the rear triangle?
Also, what size is it, center of BB to top of seat tube?
I used mothers polish 1000 grit and 2000 grit wet sand. Polished by hand not machine, it looks cloudy in pics Cause it’s been about month since I did it, fingerprints and such. I wanted it to look real nice not try and fool someone into thinking it was brand new by super high polishing it . So it’s not perfect. It just looks very lightly used.
Oh and it’s a 17″
Cool, always interesting to see the different methods for polishing the clear anodized aluminum on these frames. I’d be interested in the frame but I need to come up with some monies.
better pics uploaded.
