For the late night crowd, here’s a full shot of the early 1987 Bradbury Manitou “Chilly Willy” cartoon bike.
Doug’s first bikes were in ‘86 and thought to be only his personal frames. The next dozen or less were hand painted by a moto buddy, for his moto buddies.. so the story goes.
Obviously many parts were swapped on it over the years but there are a few age appropriate Suntour XC parts that remain. Hubs, FD, and seatpost clamp. 1” specialized headset, 26.6mm post (others were 26.6), and the welded cable guides under the bottom bracket speak to it be very early DBM.
Photographed as found.
