The Bonty and the Yeti Road Project are NOS. The P-23 is all Campy and the Zip and the DBR are in great shape........keep it real!

 

[Acesingle]

Will you sell them to me now?

Contact me via PM, I am ready to buy all of them today to add to my museum. Do you have any others in such perfect shape? This is a serious offer, please respond.
Thank you,
Ace

these are not dirt drops.. i guess they are moustache bars.

Correct on the Nitto Moustache bars. I found the bonty and the yeti road project at Belmont Wheelworks - near boston. They had been hanging around for years and years with the original SKU tag on the down tube. The only thing they changed on the bonty was the bars, stem and shifters.

Does anyone know anything about serial #'s ? the bonty is #141 and the Yeti Road Project only has 54cm stamped on the BB, no serial # - Evan from Belmont says the Yeti might have been the interbike display bike thay year - 1993.

Evan from Belmont was a pleasure to deal with - knows his VRC stuff!

very nice bikes for sure...but why were you asking us four days ago where to score VRC stuff in NE, you seem to be doing ok at it

 

[mello211]

good point. i really mean the smaller stuff. if i buy another bike or big purchase, my wife will make me live in the basement!

Maybe Ace ther will actually use those bikes in a community learning program for his said museum? Teaching youth the history of the bike and letting them ride? As Opposed to the sacrilieous virgin condition they are shown to us here?

That's what I thought too.

Personally, I'm all for flogging garage queens.

And I thought I would get you ruffled?

Seriously a cool collection of bikes. The Bonty with the Ned Flanders deal though just aint right? Those bikes needed his bar/stem conbo!

Haha! Funny you should say that. I started to get bent on your reply...but then I re-read it a few times. Sometimes it takes a few minutes to pick out written sarcasim.

...unless you were serious...then I'll be upset.

Definitely a drool-worthy collection! Thank for the photos. Naturally, I'm drawn to the carbon V-Link about as much as the others (which is saying a lot).

 

[erol/frost]

Is that a Paris-Roubaix RockShox hanging on the RoadProject?

 

[mello211]

correct on the rock shox - what a trip.

 

[deoreo]

[erol/frost]
