That sucks. If you decide to fix it, possible a machine shop can CNC one. But the cost would be very high. I would just use another crank, and go 1x9 or 1x10. I run a 1x10 and have no issues. I love it.
If it were me, I would keep this original with the paint alone, and find another frame that needs help. Turn that into a track inspired frame, with whatever parts you want on it.
There is just no way to match the cool factory paint. It has that vintage look.
The paint looks to be in great shape. FYI. You will not be able to match those decals. Just a thought..
As for the pictures. The hook is to hang the chain, for a tire change. The little nub is to hold a frame air pump.
:)
You got a great bike.
Europe got different colors. I would love to add all the europe catalogs. I would look at the parts on the bike and compare that with the USA catalogs.
and, replace those tires. :)
I would say no. There is a list here:

I would say all of the hard tails would not take a 27.5 rim+ tire.
but, It might be cool to run fat 26". I don't know how wide of a tire that frame can take.

If anybody has any to add, please let me know, or if any design ideas. I am open. :)
Hello,
Welcome. the 1 1/4 forks were threaded. Also, your M1000 has a special paint, and to patch that is the key.
Please post a picture of your M1000, and the size. I might have the matching fork. (fingers crossed)
Hello All,
I purchased a lefty a long time ago with a cracked mount/brace. I am ready to use the lefty. Does anybody have one?
(It was cut to not use)
I really just need the lower. :)
If it has a 24" rear, I would think it is a 1988 made in 87. I think you may have a 88 SM600. The black one:

the reason is the fork.. 87's had a different fork. I would match up each part. We know the brakes, rims, headset and stem are not...
I will try and get it on the site, but I think there should also be a area in the forums for documents like this to share and upload. I can compile this into a PDF. It is numbered, 2,4,5,6,8,9,11... is that correct? or are there missing pages?
