This place is like our second home, this cafe is pretty famous for all manner of ludicrous porn hanging off the walls for your inspiration, I was training over there in November last year and they had three yetis that looked fresh from riding down mammoth mountain and some typically ostentatious...

Re: Re: Yeah it's gone, glad it's going to a good home...missus is now asking how much I sold it for, i assume she's not happy the living room has become a vast mountain of old bikes, on top of the all the current XC race and road bike littering the house. Re konas they really did nail it...

A 1993" 16" so the top of seat tube from the bb is about 13", the catalog gives this a standover height of 26"...top tube is 21.5" I've had a dibs on frame so being a man of my word and my own moral fortitude I shall wait to see what they wish to do...

Why all my photos appear upside down i do not know

Good call! Didn't want to upselit! Have the catalog in front of my 1" YST...it's a 1 1/8th here are some telephone photos.

16" ct 21.5" top as per the 1993 catalog. I'm currently in the SW of England

Over the weekend will try and photograph it...I've a bunch of stuff to gradually work my way through

Trying to thin stuff down. Being realistic I can't do anything with it...It's been sprayed or powder coated, a very gopping green and then some awful mid 90's vinyl decals applied....Rather pass it on for someone to build than restore it myself andsell it Everything I can make out leads me to...

Re: Re: I did that few years ago and bought 1990's PACE RC200's my poster on the wall bike... turns out it was possibly the nastiest bike I've ever ridden...I was pretty disillusioned wished i'd just kept it hanging on the wall. After getting a 1990 Raleigh Marauder for christmas and coming...

Exactly that bike was that ugly! Although for the required effect i should have started it off with " you see that man over there picturing Anne..." "that's your bike that is"

looks pretty much original save the dreaded, offensive "commuter" it's been reduced to! If only I could operate a car right now it would be worth the drive from devon to get it

You know when you picture Anne Widdecombe in a bath of cold baked beans doing thing that shouldn't be done with an Aubergine to try, just try to get rid of image you've just seen still burning in your retinas? That's your bike that is.

I’d also contest the common wisdom that a light bike is easier to ride. Might feel better uphill but a lot more skittery downhill. Lots of companies actually experimenting with adding weight to frames to improve ride. https://www.bikeradar.com/news/add-weig ... ess-trend/ That has to a fake...

Absolutely no doubt some time back in maybe the early/mid 00's I will have done...However, this will have only have been an interim thing in between upgrading last years fork and upgrading to next years frame...I seem to remember being post grad spending all the beer money on a single Hope...

Trying to trawl through retro stuff I have lying around whilst limited to what work I can do with a broken collar bone. I came across these if anyone wants them?
