    Seth, I would love to see you dive into antique bikes a little more. So many of the attributes of the Buffalo bike were normal features of a 1950’s bicycle. Lots of interesting history to uncover too. Early shaft drive bikes, art deco styling in the late 30’s before WW2, Peewee Herman & Hopalong Cassidy bikes, fancy frame lugs, etc. Interest in antique bikes (besides penny farthings) is fading and hopefully a channel like yours could breathe new life into it. 😊

    Those XTR rim brakes were as good as it got until discs became commonplace. That includes the magura hydraulic rim brakes which had enough power to crush a rim.
    I'm guessing no bottle cage because the bolt holes are a place water can get into the frame causing internal rusting in that hi-ten steel.

    I ride an GIANT DH COMP 2003 and although my stem is different it suits me upright in that position I was riding a road comp hybrid and I constantly had back ache. I found my fitness and stamina increased. One more thing a set of riser bars which will allow you to push them forward more. I rarely have to take my a$$ off the seat. Comfortable sitting position

    The 3M beam on the Slingshot was developed for the Corvette if memory serves. I have one but nothing is weirder than the JP Morgen also in my collection of strange MTB. Machinist/Fabricator from Bay Area...Robin Williams had one in his collection also.

    The raised reverse stem is like riding a dirt bike motorcycle. I think stems are still way too low. The low handlebars started because the first mountain bikes were similar to road bicycles which were low for aerodynamics.

    Curious what you'd think of the late-90s Schwinn S-series full suspension bikes, where the bottom bracket is rigid on the stays and is suspended, allowing hard pedaling, at the time, without suspension flex. I'm sure there were tradeoffs, but they were interesting.

    55 pounds. That’s pretty heavy. I has old 12speed Roadmaster Trailmiss as a child. Absolutely pig of a bike, and with those chunky old steel, built like a tank bend like banana rims it felt very significantly heavier that the other, more modern alloy bikes . Even the old Repco Traveller I had was as heavy as most of the mountain bikes around.
