    Looking for a 1990/91 Fat Chance Team Comp with Wilson dropouts

    That is awesome. I still have my '89 Wicked's frame tag (and naturally the bike too!).

    Bontrager rolled Mavic MA2’s 36h 1980’s

    I’ve had these in my stash from the late 80’s. Brontrager took a 700c wheel (40h) then cut and rolled it down to 26”/36h. Includes the DT spokes (with spoke prep!) that I planned to use (for Suntour GreaseGuard hubs, IIRC). $50 + shipping and they are yours. Located in Western NJ.

    What made the Team Comps much more expensive? How much better then a Wicked were they? Scott?

    Scott - I worked at Mark's Bike Shop in VA during the late 80's. We sold every manner of high-end MTB, wheels, etc. I really tried to like other brands, but Fat City was the only ride that resonated with me. Legend.

    Clarification: My comment on buckled HT/DT/TT junctures was generally directed at lightweight tubing of the era, not specifically the TC & WL.

    In my mind at least! And while I saw firsthand the appeal of the TC & WL, they were far from the average high-end build and a very specific segment. I'm a smooth rider, although I am big and do take risks. The lighter tubing draws and thinner walls were never in my radar. I can't tell you how...

    1989 Wicked VS 1991 - different geo?

    Yes, yes, yes. I love all of this stuff! The Fat City era was such a great time to be alive!

    1989 Wicked VS 1991 - different geo?

    Here is the '89 catalog spec page. And Somerville, MA is always the correct answer!

    1989 Wicked VS 1991 - different geo?

    But, ‘89 was still Somerville MA. I have an ‘89 catalog if you want me to look anything up.

    I would consider selling my custom, WTB-dripped '89 Wicked, but not at today's prices.
