Title: Old School guy restoring first year Animal
Post by: cudacharger on March 22, 2009, 12:08:42 pm

Hey folks....new to the site and was looking for some help locating a few parts for my 95 animal.  I bought the bike new in 95 and have it in storage for the past 10 years.  I upgraded the fork and a few other items and looking to bring it back out of hibernation.  I'm missing the carbon fork and magura brakes of that year....any help locating those items are greatly appreciated!  I've attached a photo of the bike below.  Great site!

Is that a Vector 2/carbon fork?  Very rare if it is.

As for Magura Brakes you may want to try the folks at RetroBike.
