1991 Klein Pinnacle

[tigern]

Bought this frame set because i had the idea for a while.
I had a Kona P2 fork and because i really like straight forks, i wanted to fit it in a Pinnacle or Rascal. Bumped in to this Pinnacle and this is how it looks like after some new paint.
Decals are '93, steerer is some aftermarket thing, but looks a lot like a Klein Mission Control, and it's a 0-degrees!

Build will be Suntour XC Pro, tyres amber wall Smoke and Dart, but can be something black as well...

Re:

Looks great, very elegant.

Thanks!

Well, it turned out to be black...

Almost finished, waiting for a frontderailleur, in the mean time there's a XTR M900 doing the job. For the rest all Suntour XC Pro with Dia Compe 987 brakes and SS5 lever. Rims are Specialized BX25.

That's turned out nice, wasn't sure how the p2's would look but they work really well in the photo!
Anyway excellent job, I've got one also lurking for a build...

Tasty. The chain looks a little short.

thanks! Have to change the chain, but i'm a bit busy with moving...however i found some time to fit the new XC Pro front derailleur, no time yet to use the bike outside...

Re:

Wow, very nice to see that you've turned the Bianchi green into black.
Suits this bike very well

Thanks! Might put some skin wall tyres on it, but not sure yet...i like it like this as well.
