Yeti AS LT '96

In the fall of 2022 I bought this frame from Dirk in a terrible shape, but i saw the potential because this frame was not cracked or damaged. After stripping the entire frame down i did a full repaint, with new decals of course. These were happily supplied by Gil from Retrodecals in UK.


Must say that I am really happy with the endresult, both from how the frame turned out as for the components that I've found for it.

I started with the basics, the Shimano M-900 XTR 8-speed groupset. Shifting is done by use of the Grip-Shift SRT-500 set. 

Cook Bros 48 tooth chainring on a Kooka crankset for the bling factor.

And of course lots of bling from Ringle: stem, seatpost, bottlecage, hubs and quick releases.
