Found this in the garbage dumpster at the townhouses I used to live in back around 94 or 95..Don't know what it is, the closest I've found is similar to an old Rocky Mountain design but it's a little different by the seat post area then those bikes...It's chromoly or something as it super lite and has nice welds...It had a hairline crack on the curve were the small rear tube joins the frame that I had welded (can be seen in pic), I rode it for 10 years or so before I built the bike in the back ground (2003 Specialized P-1 frame).....

Maaaaaan, I've wanted an old Voodoo since the mid 90s. Gorgeous bike!

Thanks Perron! I’ll keep an eye for another one.

Almost looks like a Yeti w/ that looptail.

I found this TITAN BMX MTB here in Eugene where it was built. It's a 91 I think, They didn't make very many. It's a Fast Track. I made it single speed to putt around on.

That’s rad. They eventually started focusing on travel bikes and became Bike Friday.

I forgot about that one, it's really close as well other then where the top tube joins the seat post tube...Might have been something made for Canadian market up here....

I bought this single speed converted Trek zx 8000 about a decade ago, sold it to a friend shortly after and regretted it immediately. He texted me a while back asking if I was interested in buying it back. He sold it back to me for what I sold it to him for. I paypaled him and finally got around to picking it up today. Brought him a crowler of a good, local stout as a thank you for taking care of it.
Have some things to swap out still. May get a suspension fork, or a suspension corrected fork for it.

That bike is special. I say that if you intend to keep it single speed, you might as well leave the rigid fork on it.

Changed up a few things. Still need to give it a good cleaning.

I picked up some neo-retro goodness yesterday.

Picked up this Vicious Cycles fork for my Seven 26er. Will replace my Bomber fork that developed a hairline crack. Fork has 425mm A2C which is reportedly correct for a 63mm suspension fork for which my frame was built.

Looking forward to the reliability of a rigid fork. Found this one on eBay- apparently Vicious is out of business or at least not answering their phine…

I still have titanium bikes I bought 3-4 years ago that I still haven’t gotten around to doing anything with
One day, hopefully one day I’ll get all these bikes finished. Then find away to get them displayed.

The old Shimano I brakes was insane on the oldschool MTB.

My winter bike is back in action (salty roads = no riding steel frames until spring).

Thanks
It's a nice ride, but it takes some getting used to after not riding it since last winter - 15" stiff frame + rigid non-suspension-corrected fork = short wheelbase + very steep headtube angle = one twitchy SOB. And the V brakes don't have nearly the same amount of modulation as the canti's I'm used to.

Chevron Envy · 2022-01-20 12:37pm

It's strange, if you asked my 18-28 year old self, "would you ever ride a bike with fenders"? The answer would have been an emphatic "NO"!

As a 50+ year old dude, now I'm like....."Damn, those fenders look great, look how they much coverage they provide"!

Getting old is interesting, and never say never.

Love the bike!

Edit: I know how finicky it is to get them work without rubbing!

I hate fenders with a passion!
But with a bike being my main mode of transportation, and living in a country where it rains every other day on average, and winter usually means sludgy, salty roads, they are an unfortunate necessity.

Chevron Envy · 2022-01-20 4:41pm

I USED to hate fenders now I feel like they're a necessity. For me, anyway.
