Is this bike still available? If so I'm keen to purchase it. Sounds like you may be close to York - if so I'm south of you down the A1.

Best Regards

Thanks Pigman. Oh Bugger. I'll keep on looking - I thought deleted member was an odd user name, (unless there'd been an unfortunate incident with a top tube)....

I remember when the bike was first advertised. I umd and ahd but in the end thought it might be a gnats small. If it had been a 56cm I might have taken a punt.

Always loved these coulours back in the day, as ridden by Chris walker and the Reality squad
