This bike is one of my buddies from college. We used to MTB all the time and he had neglected to use this bike for the past well, lets just say several years. Dan wanted to do some upgrades and get a few modern items that might make the bike ride even better than it could when it was new. The good thing is this Ventana is about 10 years old and you can still see the great craftsmenship and care Gibson puts into all his bikes.

We helped him get a new fork...Rock Shox Reba and we turned it down to 85mm travel before installation. He was coming off an original Rock Shox Judy SL. Also Dan swapped out the old Nuke Proof stem for a newer Ritchey added som enew grips and wheels (which are no pictured here) and this bike is all updated and ready to roll.
