I worked with Omar at Oasis Custom Cycles in Phoenix, AZ to repaint my 1985 Maruishi Record (see above for original coral pink build). Once it was stripped down it became clear the 1985 frameset and the 1986 frameset are not the same (there's a link floating around among these forums to a review of the 1986 version)--the 1985 is definitely seamless double-butted 022, whereas the 1986 has been written up as seamed, quad-butted 022.
Anyway, Omar brazed on front and rear eyelets for racks/fenders, and painted it a metallic coffee brown that reminds me of the 1981 Trek 600s. Decals from velocals. Rebuilt it how I want to ride it (I've never been one for an 'authentic' rebuild--e.g., this now has a late 80s xt rear derailleur with a 12-32 cassette), and it'll be with me this Spring 2021 at Eroica California.
