1993-94 3D Racing Rover

in 1992 Chris Herting left Yeti Cycles in Durango to form 3D Racing. He continues to operate 3D to this day. I came across this frame in Durango and couldn't pass up a vintage 3D in my size. I struggled with build options for awhile, and ultimately I let the 1993 catalog pick it for me. You can see many Yeti ARC-like details with riveted cable guides and Easton varilite tubing. Very cool early nineties race machine.

Right when I was finishing up this bike, another Rover popped up locally on Craigslist. It was a former race frame from someone else I knew in Durango. Too big for me unfortunately, but its cool to have pairs!
