actually, the guy didnt even know there was a crack (so he says), i noticed it right away when I was inspecting it to purchase. I have no intention of fixing it but I’ll look at the how-to for future ref. anyhow (thanks). I just figured that it would be a good wall hanger since it looks real nice and they have that cool xx paintjob on them.
I purchased it for some of the pars and the black/white marzochhi that was on it…oh, and the red rimgle stem. I’m using the cranks, brake levers, brakes and rims for another build. The guy removed the stem, handlebars, pedals, shifters, brake levers after a couple rides and upgraded to shimano shifters and aheadset. He gave me all the other stuff in a box, I believe it also has all the manuals and associated documents. The pedals look like they were taken off right away as there’s no scratches on them at all. I figured that someone prob has a showbike that may be able to use them. The manuals are up for grabs too (i’ll sell cheap (make an offer) or trade)….if nobody want the stuff I’ll just use the pedals on another build and file the docs for now. I’m not a fan of the bikes (nor do I dislike them), i just always prefered full suspension bikes so rigid aluminum is not my cup-o-tea. I raced aginst the team back in the nineties and always respected any company that sent a team around the circuit.
I’ll get some pics up soon.
