Converting a 1993 Specialized Hardrock Ultra into a modern dirt commuter / adventure bike.
A bit out of character for this channel, but couldn't pass up this chance to upgrade and re-purpose a 90s cro-mo steel Hardrock. A $60 Craigslist find and a super fun weekend build with help from @ritcheydesign .
