Some kid will have an amazing Crimbo waking up to this. My daughter climbed every steep gravelly hill from the age if 6 on these they are so light compared to a modern kids rig.
Its defo a L sus corrected frame from 93/94. I had the same frame and they really do ride beautifully with the right fork. You need to inspect the seat tube base as mentioned on another thread especially as its been kept in a shed.
Plenty of Yeti FROs and other high end premium thin walled steel frames of this era ‘can have’ rust issues, its nothing unique to steel FATs no drain hole accepted. I always turned my 89 steel FAT upside down and dried the seat tube out over night in a warm room and used frame saver = zero rust...
Yes, this Yo Eddy fork predates (90-92) the BOI (92 -10th Anniversary BOI only but from 93 onwards BOI forks were suspension corrected unless custom ) Factory BOI forks are actually very very rare as most new FAT owners were speccing suspension forks by 1993. Plenty of reproduction BOI ones...
Its a lovely original Yo Eddy fork but not as rare or valuable as an original factory BOI. I would definitely recommend waiting for the right Yo Eddy frame to turn up to fit it. Depending on the condition, it might be nice to repaint in Grello or some OG FCC fade. FCC invented this style of...
Its likely it would be the wrong A-C ie NON sus corrected making the steering too twitchy as the head angle becomes too steep. FAT Ti’s are typically ( unless custom spec) sus corrected and need A-C 415mm for 91-94 era Ti FATs.
I shudder when I see what looks like an OG Yo Eddy ( in this case as patina on steerer looks old ) or OEM BOI fork being split from their original frame. Way under priced if its an original but sold.
