What does /n/ think about taking an all original classic and modifying it, for example changing details like handlebar grips and cables, or more drastic alterations like groupset or powdercoating the frame?
I'm on the cusp of completely revising an NOS 1987 Muddy Fox and would like to know how stupid that may be.
Plan is to powdercoat it baby blue, upgrade to full groupset to m900 XTR including wheels (also NOS) put a NOS Titanium Flite saddle, Ritchey seat post, handlebars and stem and finish with yellow trim (cables/grips/seatpost collar) with Maxxis tyres.
I inherited the bike, literally in the box and I already have all the above components except grips and cables.
Thoughts?
