1990's Semi-carbon Giant Cadex CFM-3 - Old MTB Build (ASMR)

Old School Giant Cadex CFM-3. Not a restoration, just a build.
The main triangle of the frame is made of carbon, while the others elements are aluminum. In its original configuration it should have a 3x7 transmission and cantilever brakes. But I decided to upgrade it to a 3x9 Shimano Deore transmission and a Shimano STX RC V-brakes.
Bike specs:
- Carbon\aluminum 20" frame;
- Rock Shox Indy C fork;
- 26" wheels;
- V-Brake;
- 3x9 transmission.

the fork steerer tube is too short for that frame, the stem only goes half way over it… best to avoid that if you plan to ride this bike

I know. Thanks for watching!
