The Complete Overhaul.
Overhauling a bike is not unlike putting it in a Star Trek transporter:
You strip it down to atomic components,

As Prof. Krauss notes above, there's a number of problems with this. First of all, there are some laws of physics in the way:




Natural selection, the powerful albeit oft questioned force, has simplified bikes significantly since the 2002 Yellow Yeti [Kokopelli AS]. It's predecessor, the ASR, uses about half as many suspension pieces than this relic of times past (my bike uses about 10pcs total), and a good thing too--the overhaul took us about 6 hours from beginning to end with a pretty substantial tool chest, and we're still not entirely done...
The YY may have outlived its era, but a little help from a pair of dedicated conservationists has allowed it to struggle on.
