Yeah ,never really gave much thought to how the brickhouse looked on there, but now that you mention it, it does look a little odd. I guess its just because i ride this all the time and love how responsive and easy it is, to get over into nose manuals. I am not a big fan of hang leg manuals so shorter stem solves that prob, at least for me.

Title: Re: revised STA
Post by: BrianP on October 09, 2007, 03:29 PM: yep, one email sent to standard when i got it and they said it was a '98. from what i can remember the serial no started 98****

Post by: easyroller on October 09, 2007, 04:13 PM: yeah i kinda had delusions of getting this thing down to 27 pounds :idiot2: but quickly realised that this girl deserved to be made tougher than leather, i think she's 32 pounds and i actually love how stable it is in the air on gaps, solid like a sofa.
Title: Re: revised STA
Post by: harris on October 09, 2007, 04:17 PM: the frame n forks hold alot of the bulk,wheels n bars can make a big difference on overall saving#

96-95 werelike mkII as they had the extra gussets on the top of TT and the downtube.. for mkIII/IV they got rid of them i think, slimmed the dropouts a fair bit, then onto seatstay brake bosses. i LOVED my STAs. wouldn't mind having them back!

Na, S&M only since 1991!

They aint standard forks. It will probably be frame only (although there are some other parts on the bike that might be up for sale (wheels, seat n post, brake)
