not sure if anyone's following along here or not, but i figured i should update.
got the troll fork for the alpina, kinda mocked the frame/fork/wheels up to see where i'm at. ignore the stem, it's just there to keep the headset in place for the moment.
this frame should have no problem fitting as big of tires as i could ever want to fit on these 1" rims
i was thinking about parting out my stumpjumper fsr to get this univega together, but i'm not sure that's a good idea. the plan was to sell the fsr, but shipping a complete bike is a pain. i could strip it down to the frame and fork and sell those on their own and use what i can for the univega, but i'd feel bad parting out such a nice old stumpjumper.
not sure what i'm going to do just yet.
