Hi, I have a 4th gen Orange Aluminium "O" complete bike for sale. This bike was owned from new by my Father-in-Law.
Most of the parts appear to be original, the transmission is all Shimano Deore. The wheels are Deore DX with Mavic 517 rims. It has Pace RC35 forks with the brace rocker and Deore cantis. The forks are in good condition except for the elastomers which appear to have perished as I can extend or compress the forks at will. It has a suspension seatpost fitted with a centimetre or so of give. There is plenty of "patina" on the frame as you'd expect for it's age and there is some serious cable rub on the edge of the headtube. This looks to me to be cosmetic. The bike is in the Edinburgh region, ideally the buyer will arrange collection, as it will be difficult for my family to post it. We're looking for £300.
