I'll definitely add you to my blogroll.<br /><br />I'm with you on the early-90s bikes. My biggest regret is missing out on the employee-purchase deal for rigid steel Stumpjumpers when I worked in a shop from 1994-1995. If I remember correctly, they were almost full Deore XT for something like $300. It was a lot of money on a mechanic's salary, but it seems like chump change now. <br /><br />Then, the hot setup was to add Specialized's reworking of a Rock Shox Judy that had carbon fiber lower legs. I don't think it was any lighter or stiffer than a regular Judy, but WOW, did it ever look cool... and that's half the battle. :-)<br /><br />I keep waiting to find one of those mid-90s steel Stumpys in a garage sale for cheap, but lightning hasn't struck yet. Someday...Jason T.
