So it was the gateway bike into the realms of N+1
I’ll try to come have a look at some point. I’m not quite as free on time currently as I was a bit ago though so may be after Xmas
Probably around that. Maybe a little more for the frame £300’frame and £70 forks.
It means you’ve paid £500’for a XTR groups and wheel which is far from cheap though.
I doubt it will sell. But at a little less I’d buy it to split.
Hi mate , hope you are well?
You’ve got a hot? In stars and bars? I didn’t know.
I may well pop over at some point. But I think I’ve ruled it out as a repaint as I’m not sure it can be done 100% correct.
I personally like the red burgundy metallic of 96 too. But I’ve too many red bikes and feel it would just blend in too much.
most of my bikes are actually silver or bare (Ti or alloy) as I like the plain understated look. But something in me says a Hot should be a wild colour
It’s pretty awesome.
I know this is silly , (blue and red is my favourite colours) but I’ve lots of bikes in those colours. But nothing in yellow or green. So it kinda seems right to go Rasta on this
I’ve kinda made a decision.
I want to go with the Rasta flame scheme in gloss.
However …. Do I follow the normal colour scheme or reverse the colours to make it a bit different?
To be fair the term “refurbished” is thrown around a lot so I do understand it.
To get around your issue “in need of attention”.
It’s similar to not being able to use the word Kevlar when listing a saddle. Just get around it.
I will also take parts in part x

Have I missed the pic of the made in USA decal?
1999 was the last year of USA production
2000 onwards were made in Taiwan apart from a few exceptions
Yours is made in Taiwan.
Value wise is not much as 2000 onwards don’t really have much following
