Thanks buddy, currently got city jets fitted as they are on my spare wheelset for the moment.
Just brought another Scott mtb this time it’s a Windriver with full Deore LX groupset, it came up ridiculously cheap so brought it just to have the groupset. Just brought it home and it rode lovely so now I’m unsure what to do!!

Not much to update really, changed the stem back over to the original stem as it was to much of a drop with the road stem. I’ve swapped out the wheels from my other build temporary until I can find something for the Scott. Same goes for the turbo saddle And lastly brought some 8 and 9 speed bar end shifters as I’m undecided if I wanna go 8 or 9 speed.

Thanks guys, dunno if I can multi reply
But yeah wanna get some nice beefy tyres thinking Reneherse rat trap 2.3 if I have enough clearance for them and guards.Hp93 - thanks for the link they are the guards I'm looking for!
Managed to get all the dust/ dried in dirt off the bike i gave it a quick t-cut and a polish and it’s come up lovely. I’m looking into which wheels to source for this any recommendations ?
Groupset wise I'm thinking 3x8 deore of some kind But it’s still early days -

Never done a project thread so thought ill better make a start,
Been looking through facebook market place the other day and came across a sorry looking 80s/ early 90s Scott mtb no idea what model it is but it was up for £20 so i snapped it up.The frame is in good condition no rust or dents of any kind, the rest is shot even had to hacksaw the chain off as it sized solid!.
My plan for the bike is to build a 26” dropbar do it all bike, its going to be my winter build so enjoy :) -

Top tube 54cm
130mm rear drop outs

Hi all selling my Bottecchia frameset as its way to big for me, originally tried to sell this complete but ended up using the components on an another project.
Anyways, Columbus SL tubing & foderi laminati forks
Stamped 59 on the bottom bracket but taken some measurements they are as follows,
Top tube,59cm
Bb to seat post mount,62cm
Head tube,20cmThere are quite a few paint chips on this frame which I tried my best to take pictures off and the forks are pitted with some rust on the top of the forks, again I’ve taken pictures off. The bottom bracket is still on as I done have the right tool to take off.
Looking for £100 *dropped to £60*collected from Hastings East Sussex or I can meet at Orpington station weekdays after 7pm if that helps, ugh be able to post if I can find a box and get quotes.

Yeah its a lovely bike, I decided to go back to my original idea which was use the group set off the windriver and fit a 10x1 from my parts bin chuck a front rack on and use it as a pub bike.
So back to the other Scott, I’ve installed the Deore lx drive train from the windriver, just need to buy some cables and chain now and get it all dialled up, headset wise I’m watching an Deore lx on the bay at the moment so probably end up buying that. But its slowing getting there.
