Ok, so I started working on the bike in this post:
viewtopic.php?f=1&t=381935
It is a what looks like 90-91 Prestige, full XT.
I have decided that there is simply not enough room in my life/garage for it, so I am selling it on as a project.
The frame was pretty rusty, so I have stripped it to bare metal to deal with the surface rust and check thoroughly for cracks. The frame and forks are sound but now obviously need painting. I was going to powder coat it.
Includes this lot: XT thumbies, LX front mech cranks, chainrings, brakes and (polished) levers, wheels (xt hubs on Mavic rims), bottom bracket, qr's and a few other bits and pieces. It came with a newer XT rear mech which I have sold, but everything is serviceable and working. Even the chainrings are ok.
So, if someone wants a project to make this bike awesome once more I am looking for £150.
Can post or be collected from Holmfirth.
