I very much appreciate this. I drooled over these in my local bike shop as a young teen. I had a GT Timberline and only ever managed to buy my way into the Pace brand by way of a single 24t chainring and a sweatshirt which I wore to death! Lovely machine sir!
Lovely build - I still have an F2 which I have had from new! The frame isn't without short comings (slushy back brake - even with V-Brakes) but your build is really similar to mine in many ways. I also raced it with the red Z-max tyres 1.5" I think - the tyres cost me a packet back in the 90's and lasted 1 race!!!! But the weight and ride quality with those tyres on was amazing. I'm looking at doing a rebuild on mine as it has needed a service for years so I might do a full strip rebuild. Good work and great informed video - cheers.
i think the 90`s was the best time for mountain bikes, there was some amazing designs and concepts from your bike to the kliens alpinestars, GT`S and a manitou full suspension bike which basically had the front forks on the rear as well, some of the engineering was amazing, and wouldn't be out of place in a museum.. Sadly just like mobile phones mountain bikes have gone the same way, where they are all basically the same. Nice bike👍
totally agree...looking back it felt like the early 90's and the MTB scene was an era of experiments, a series of trials and effectively prototypes and innovation that were sold on to the public.....and the changes came thick and fast !!!
Yummy syncros cattleprod? stem, nice choice on saddle my alps flite had it since 96ish still going strong. Very rare frame even when new Pace was always top end.
Very nice bike matey looks awesome 👌👍 it's a shame you don't show the building and restoration process. Nevertheless cracking vid keep up the good work 🙂👍🚲🚲

Absolutely amazing bike mate, love it. Such an immaculate build. Thanks for sharing. Can’t wait for more vids and I hope those new odi’s fit better 👍👍

Oh my.
Wow
Perfect judgement there - especially with the tyres and grips. Also keeping it real with XT!
This is the sexiest bike I've ever seen!

Love what you did with this bike!!
Nice video, lovely bike! I’ve just done my first retro mtb video on my Ti Raleigh, would love it if you’d take a look! Thanks.
