I am searching for another Yo frame or frameset. I would prefer a M, but would also be interested in a S/M as well. I don’t want a suspension corrected model and am looking for something that is dent free and has no corrosion issues. Thanks, Matt

Unfortunately, I am finding myself facing unforeseen financial hardship and need to quickly come up with some extra money. Because of this, I have had to made the decision to sell the Yo I had been working to build up over the past year. I originally purchased this from fat-tony on here, and...

So, this may be a long shot... After tinkering around with this build for months and now having all the parts for it, I just am not happy with the size of my Yo. What I am really looking to do is find a nice size medium, Somerville Yo that doesn't have any rust issues to trade for. I don't...

Looking for a nice, uncut, black answer hyperlite bar for my Yo. not picky on the backsweep. also, would like to find a black or purple ringle seatpost clamp QR. already have the actual ringle clamp, so just need the QR part.

Lecture given by Chris Chance on YouTube Found these videos today of Chris Chance giving a lecture on early mountain bike history and the history of his brand. They only had about 100 views, so I figured I would post them for you all. It's a three part lecture...

Hey guys. Stepped foot in a bike shop for the first time in a while. The mechanics there happened to be familiar with Fats and they even had a used Yo for sale. The topic of seat tube corrosion came up when I mentioned what that green seal on the clamp was for. It was highly recommended to me...

Hey guys, Came across a cheap Shimano XT headset and found out after I purchased it that it's French. Does anyone know what parts I can salvage out of this to use? It's basically just the bottom cup I need, but I want to replace everything that's usable. Here's the product manual: The ISO...

I know this is probably a long shot, but I'm looking for a Ringle "Holey" seatpost clamp with a 31.8mm clamp diameter, in either purple (3DV) or black. I finally got a set of the skewers in purple and would really like to eventually have a clamp to match. Can be either bolt-on or QR. Thank you...

Hey guys. Just wanted to share the progress I've made so far with my Yo. The only thing missing at this point is a fork. Unless I get an opportunity to purchase an original FC fork, I'll be going to Chris Igleheart in Portland to have a fork made. If anyone has a 1" threaded Rock Shox Mag 21...

I'm on the lookout for a nice set or single Mavic 231 or 261 in either 32 or 36 hole. I'm just trying to build up a matching set of wheels for my Yo. I have a mish mash of hubs and rims right now, but no matches. Thanks guys!

I need this replacement rear skewer for the Yo I'm building. I have a complete m730/732 wheelset, just need a nice skewer for the back. Thanks as usual!

edit: M735 I have everything but a front derailleur for the Yo I'm currently building. If anyone has the FD I need, I would like to give you money for it. Thank you!

I purchased a set of m730/m732 wheels laced to Mavic 231s on eBay for the Yo Eddy I'm building. The seller had two sets he built up, one with a radially laced non-drive side rear. I ordered a set with a regular 3x but was shipped the wrong wheels. The seller refunded my entire purchase and let...

I will beginning my new build soon, a 1993 Yo Eddy, and I am slowing trying to amass enough parts. If anyone has any 1" threadless stems or handlebars, preferably American-made and period correct, I may be interested. I am not partial to any brand, just needs to be in good condition. Any and...

Picked up a nice 1993 Specialized Stumpjumper FS for my wife and I'm looking for a Mag 21 since the fork was swapped out for a newer Manitou. Anything that doesn't need any work and isn't beat up will work fine. Thank you!
