As for build - I am thinking of keeping it traditional and close to the original ATB/expedition intent. Meaning no drop bars or slick tires. I will be building it as a mid-to-late 80s ATB, with major period-ish upgrades to the original spec.

The first question is, Suntour Roller Cams or Deore XT U brakes? I have an NOS pair of each (Suntour XC Sport Roller Cams and Deore XT II U-brakes). Anybody have any opinions? I think the Roller Cams will look the part and of course are the OEM brakes for this model. The XT U-brakes are a little more unique though.

@pastorbobnlnh I feel like I'm slowly becoming you First the Sports Tourer and now this. Soon I'll be looking for a congregation
