I can still see someone buying it if they had one BITD and want to scratch their itch. Not a bargain by any means, but good solid basis and nice originality with all the important bits present for period restoration.

I've always fancied one of these specifically in this colour as I think the 89 bikes were the stand out year for me.

Having said that, the black version is very nice too.

Indeed, a double U brake Saracen is pretty cool and I do love a fillet brazed Kili Flyer. Thought the graphics were pretty cool and very 80s. 90s Saracen's didn't quite do it for me sadly.

Gotta love the late 80s Saracens, I would be tempted if it was closer.

I bet that combo gave you about 2" of bouncy travel on the end of the AT4s!!!
