Just finished this '94 Specialized HardRock Rebuild

Here's the glamour shots I took today to post it for sale. Hope you like how it turned out as much as I do!

Thanks. I was pretty pleased how it turned out. I wish all the shades of red were more matched but in the end it's pretty close. I thought it was funny how even the grips and the chainring both from RaceFace weren't the same shade of red lol.
Hopefully someone scoops it up soon so I can make my money back heh

It is. It's an 11-42t 9 speed cassette. I swapped out the wheels for new ones that had a 9 speed hub. The entire groupset is Microshift Advent so I had no issues with the new derailleur working with the cassette size.

Very nice build. Love the mix of old and new. Canti’s and Advent... excellent.

The frame belonged to a friend of mine in the neighborhood. She didn't want it anymore and it had been sitting in storage for almost 20 years. I got it for free. This was a rebuild of opportunity.

With a mighty wind
My first bike was a 1991 Hardrock. I was 13. Yellow decals on a black frame. 200gs and Biopace.

I assume your referring to the tires? No, there were no clearance issues. I sold this to a BF member shortly after completing - not sure if they've switched anything out since then!

Yep, I was asking about the tires, thank you! I have a set ordered for my 94. I’m doing a 1x conversion also. Love your bike!
