the 935 no such bike that I know of... also, in order to have hope disk brakes it must either have an adapter on the frame (possibly a X56HH's? if its a 955)...

Thats a 856/855 style frame
looks like a conversion/upgrade to an Nr4 rear shock
plus must have a disc adaptor upgrade.

You've had a very very good purchase there,
if the frames in good condition (no cracks)you have a great lightweight frame to upgrade further,

I'd look to replace those forks in the future,

welcome to the club.

aaaaaahh! you're the one who bought it!
Well done!

I was thinking of buying it just for the parts!

I assumed it is an 856, but I've never seen that colour scheme originally! Has it got any words on the frame?

Hope it's a good 'un!!

(well at that price, as Simon says, as long as the frames OK, then you're larfin' !)

That is a cool bike you have.

The parts are worth a bunch.  Overall it has a nice look to it. I bet it rides nice. 935, does it have decals on the bike?

When you get it, I would be interested in what it tips the scales at.
