I think we both got bargains. The advert said they needed work but pumping up the forks and bleeding the rear brake didn't take much effort! Hope you have a similarly easy time with the Whyte

It’s the 2011. Last of the 26ers I think

Just for interest this is the Whyte that sold for £200. 🙃

The local second hand bike shop put up a facebook post today advertising a Whyte PRST Works Special and a Specialized Epic for £200 each. Suffice to say I was in the car before finishing my cup of tea. Sadly missed the Whyte by about 5 minutes but got the Spesh. The forks had no air in them...

Thanks! So, build is: Full X0 12 speed groupset Hope wheels, brakes, pedals, headset and seatclamp Pike 140mm fork Renthal Bar Pace Stem Maxxis Tyres After the first ride the thing I like the least is the Renthal bar. Far too stiff, as especially as Im used to carbon so that will be changing...

Yes, no decent pictures yet but here is a sneak peak!

6 pots were never that good really and certainly not worth the weight penalty. Before I sold mine I had considered trying them with Tech 3 levers but never got round to it

The video from the powdercoaters showing the new colour: Here

a modern air shock and forks would offer a significant improvement and save a fair bit of weight

I don't think they made mtb frames for very long. Company owned by Anthony Revell, who is more of a bmxer

Pretty cool that the running gear has survived so long. Shame about those Technics 1200's though...

I got that one from Plant X for a couple of quid. Unfortunately they don't seem to sell them anymore, probably because it was for a specific frame that also no longer sell. It will probably be a case of trawling ebay to find something similar
