Post by: gavprimo on June 17, 2011, 12:37 PM: the one I used to have was supposedly a MAAS specialties built one, but I got that info from the seller, not sure yhow you check. I always wanted the Nate Wessel frame myself

There's a pic in my sig labelled Old T1

I used ditchforks, powerbites, primo mustache bars, DMR V12s, and the wheels built up from Supra E (sigma) rims can't remember the hubs might have been primo aswell. New school bits on it were the elementary stem, macneil pivotal seat, the chain ring, and the ody tyres but they were what I had around at the time and it all worked rather well from a rider point of veiw rather than era specific
