For the era, this bike had a super low bb and slack head tube. It's right on par with modern DH bikes though.

The representative could not identify this bike's model.  A few people very familiar with Votec did not recognize it either.  Could easily be a bike built for a trade show, or a dream bike some Votec engineer built for themselves. We can't even find a picture of this bike anywhere online!

It's fast, quick handling, and comfortable. The front end is extremely stiff due to the fork\/stem, and thus has a “goes where it's pointed” type of ride quality. The 80-100mm air fork is plush and smooth, not terribly different in feel from a high end Fox Talas. When the rear shock is in locked out mode, power transfer is incredible. It is a true lockout, with zero travel. When the shock is between the full open and lockout settings, it's approximate 60-80mm of travel is plush and responsive. Soaks up the bumps well. There is a bit of pedal bob, as it was made well before shocks had a way to prevent bob.

There are a couple very light surface scratches that are not even all the way through the clear coat, and a tiny pinpoint chip at the bottom of the non-drive fork leg. Decals are perfect. Components are all mint without a blemish worth noting. The tires are nearly NOS, and still have parts of the nipples left. Supple with no dryness or cracking. Pedals and chain are NOS.

If so you would see bite marks on the dropouts. No sign of this ever having been built up. I suppose you could really finely finish a dropout so it looks like it's never been used, but I've never seen it done. No point, the juice isn't worth the squeeze even at this price. All the details are correct for the '93 XO-1 except the tubing sticker and headbadge. The serial number dating is very late in the model year, likely after the next year's production was already underway, or about to be; that's a '94 badge. Ishiwata went bankrupt in 1993 so its tubing would not have been available in 1994. Tange OTOH would have been pretty easy to come by for a company as big as Bridgestone (remember that even though BSUSA was a small operation, BSJ is huge. It's the Treck or Speckleized of Japan.) My guess is that this is legit and rare, probably a post-production\/warranty replacement frameset, otherwise it would have been a complete bike like the other NOS one shown, not a frameset in a box. I vaguely recall that BSUSA offered some such framesets on clearance after their run was over.

The model was introduced in 1981 by Kent Eriksen who operated out of his Sore Saddle Cyclery in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Before Moots became legends of the titanium frame, Mountaineer was lugged and featured standard gauge ultra-thin steel tubing, in an era where many mtb's were using oversized tubing or even aluminum. It was purpose-built to be ridden fast over rough ground for long distances. It was revered as both a mountain bike and a touring bike. They were designed to accommodate full size fenders (made by Rich Cast) and carry lots of gear via racks as well as numerous bottle cage braze ons (this one has three). It comes with the original Moots-made and paint matched fillet brazed stem \u0026amp; custom-bent handlebars.

Whoever ordered this one checked all the boxes! The most \"what the fuck is going on there\" feature is \"Moots Mounts\", which are clamp on cantilever braze ons that allow you to use whatever wheel size you desire. The mounts slide up and down on the seatstays and fork legs to allow swapping wheel sizes on the fly.  Next up is a portage pad under the top tube to facilitate carrying your bike over unrideable obstacles. As for rack mounts, it has chainstay rack eyelets, front lowrider bosses, and higher ones for a randonneur rack (the fork mounts are a rare feature on these). The only significant option this frame does not have are Moots Road Handles, which were essentially the first bar ends ever made (though they were intended to mount inboard of the grips).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eA few different fork crowns were available, including a bi-plane a la Tom Ritchey, a square shouldered tubular crown, and a gorgeous fillet brazed one like this frame has. This fork is even more unique as it features Moots's dual position fork ends. These weird dropouts have two axle slots per side. Each slot provides a different rake and fork length, which gives a different effective head angle and bottom bracket height. There were at least 3 different versions of the dual position fork ends, this being the most refined to my eye. The more common version is a square plate with a big horizontal slot; one position you slide the axle forward the other you slide it back. Another is similar to this fork's, but both slots are in the same vertical plane. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eThe paint and decals are luxurious and creative. Moots wasn't the only early mtb maker to use this camouflage \"Commando\" paint scheme, but they were by far the best at it. This paintjob invokes rays of sunlight poking through the deepest forest, illuminating the jewels within. The base color is a metallic dark forest green, and it's interspersed with varying shades of deep sea turquoise, trout green, sunny yellow, gold, and brown. The brightest spots are pure magic, these spots where the forest gives way to the sun truly look like they are bioluminescent!  Particularly the bright spot rearward the downtube logo and underneath it looks like its lit from the inside.  The decals are an inspired artistic statement along the lines of \"take me to the woods to commune with the fae\"! The downtube Moots logo uses a whimsical font lined in ultra-glittery gold. Either side of this loosely oval logo is three concentric crescent moons in green, white, and gold conjoined by three smaller full moons (am I listening to Jefferson Airplane as I compose this?). The top tube logo is a boxier, regal and folksy font cut through by a bucksaw. It's centerline is wrapped by a lil alligator! The headtube logo is of the original Mr. Moots, a cartoonish gator in a tailcoat balancing two wheels on their arms. All these beautiful logos are \"probably\" waterslide decals, but they have a hand painted quality to them.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e*I included some outdoor photos, as this paint job shines even more vibrantly in the sun!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eCondition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eNear mint unrestored condition, fully original paint and decals!

Zero dents, dings, bends, or rust (what you see in the chips is primer). The paint wear is very scattered leaving the majority of the surface looking nearly showroom condition (for example the downtube is very close to pristine). The big spots of paint imperfections are driveside chainstay, underside of fork crown from tire throw, and little chips along the sharp edges of the lugs. There are a few small chips here and there, well represented in the photos. All in all, it would be a crime to even consider repainting this frame.
