What I got here
Is one greasy mofo.
I'm not sure if it's overachieving splinenluben or bad seals...



The brakes were dry, but I'm not sure why.

Here's his sister.



Greasy slut

Those bolt heads sure do indicate something REAL close...?

What was the deal with the rear shocks?

Any idea of why the attempt for a hardtail?

All that extraneous hardware is for the enormous Dan Brown saddlebags that surrounded the rear end.

The rear shocks are toast. Probably from carrying all that weight.

That's not originally loop stuff, is it? Looks like T or T3. The loop perches should be easy to come by. Or is that a special cop-Eldo bit?

That's a disc-brake Eldo only clutch perch. I'd have it welded up...
