Posting my Terrago again. Got a pair of new wheels, a 9sp XT rear derailleur (original LX bit the bullet) and currently waiting for a dropper post to be installed. Got a cheap second hand one that will complete the build.
It's my 2nd bike, but not in a "beater" way. It resides in my hometown and it gets ridden every 2nd weekend when I visit. So it gets some love in the form of new parts.
Current specs:
2007 Giant Terrago small
RS Recon Gold fork (coil)
Mavic 319 rims on XT/Deore hubs
Specialized The Captain front, Fast Trak rear, both 2.2 sport versions, tubes with sealant. (Pretty worn, soon to be replaced with DHF/Ardent combo)
9sp Deore shifters & front der.
XT rear der
Avid Juicy 3 brakes, 185 front, 160 rear (these need to go)
Deore Cranks with 22-32-bash
750 Funn Full On bars
60mm Truvativ Stylo stem
Cheap welgo flats or M520's
Uncomfortable Selle Italia Shiver saddle
Stock Giant seatpost (soon to be replaced with Tranz-X dropper)
