WTT 1988 Jett Fillet Brazed ATB / MTB med
~1988 Jett, fillet brazed by Scott Jett in Chico California (as far as I know)
Size Med
21.5" top tube c-c actual
18" seat tube c-t
Not a light bike, the tubing seems to be substantial. It rides very well in my opinion, very well mannered, ideal for leisurely "touring" or light dirt path riding. M730 group in ok/functional shape. The stem is not original, as you can see, and the cable setup is provisional. If you want to keep the stem you can cut the housing and fix the cable silliness. Also it currently has a 7 speed cassette on it, which I've been using with the shifters set to friction.
The paint is nice in person, with a lustrous metallic or pearlescent look in the silvery parts. There are some scratches, scrapes etc, some of which have been nailpolished over.
PM or comment with any questions.
WTT for an interesting old titanium ATB/MTB, same size. Something along the lines of a Fuji/Sumitomo, or TITAN Half Track: quirky, with character. Or for steel bikes, something like an '88 Mongoose Tomac Signature. Looking for rideable, with no cracks or frame misalignment. Open to negotiation on complete bike or frame only, exact condition etc. Probably only shipping to the US/Canada, but maybe global for the right thing.

Since it appears the frame is going to be on eBay and the bike is parted out, the thread is closed as there’s no sale here.
