Distinguishing features
I'm the original owner. I bought the new, unbuilt frame from The Pedaler bike shop in the SF Bay Area around the time Bridgestone USA was shutting down in '94 or '95. I got the fork direct from Bridgestone USA as a warranty replacement. Built close to original complete-bike spec w/ Shimano Deore XT 7 speed drivetrain, Ritchey Logic cranks, 1st gen Shimano SPD pedals. The wheels are hand built w/ Mavic 217 rims on Deore DX hubs. Schwalbe tires are newer. The bike lived with my brother in St. Louis for several years, and recently came back home.
