Probably wise. Maybe £600-700 I think

Yeah I took a photo of the FB listing a few weeks ago. I wasn’t sure if it was the same one but probably too much of a coincidence for it not to be

Very beautiful. Love the re-spray

Similar to mine but with Bontrager forks but no fade on the downtube or rack bosses

Surely it would be worth fitting the original tyres and pedals then cabling up the bike up and taking some better photos. Otherwise, from a buyers perspective, it’s hard to see how you are adding value over the previous sale

Great spot the difference work.

Too many bikes including a couple of broken ones. There was a trek 520 tourer but just returned that to the original owner - my old boss at a bike shop I used to work at. There is some sort of Mozer and a Specialized Epic bonded carbon road frame.

Thanks. Well your restoration was an inspiration for us. I even got a set of sim works tyres for the spare wheels we got. It is what it is with frame - it shows its history I guess but it means we don’t have to be too precious. Yeah I’ve really come to love the fades on this also. Yes we do have...

Starting putting some of the parts on to see how it’s going to look. Going to fit the Tioga stem from the parts bag rather than the syncros. It’s got more of a rise , personally I think it looks better too even if a bit heavier. I’ve just ordered a wider more practical 58cm tioga bar from EBay...

Should we sell it we thought - clearly the was a lot of love for the bikes, how much was it worth blah-di-bla- but the more we looked at it and reminisced- let’s see if we can fit the rigid legs and build it up. We had tried to fix the forks years back but given up as the suspension forks had...

My husband bought this bike around 2005 from a work colleague who had previously raced it but had been in storage for years. In our hands it been used for a couple of years- commuting, a bit of mountain biking but mostly touring - note the rack mounts. We fitted a rack, slick tyres, rolls...

Looks awesome. Nice touch with the blue outer cable 😎

Also one of the 0.2%. Plus I know exactly what bikes are in the garage and have a better idea of what’s going to happen to them than my husband does 🤣

Thanks everyone for all the options. I have found a solution. Don’t want to stand in the way of @RobbieA purchasing the one from @Walterscot 😀

Thanks for the offer but going to try and stick to XT if possible 😀

Thank you @Walterscot. I’m just being a bit indecisive and the the costs are starting to escalate on this build . I’m going to try and put the current one back together in the bike first and if no good your one for £60 is a great option for sure. Hope you can bear with me. Thanks again 🤞

Looking 1 inch headset ideally XT in good condition even NOS but assume that is a difficult ask. Would consider other options too. Let me know if you have anything looking for a new home. Thanks
