Hardtrax. Bought new in 99 from Halfords in the sale. Bought it for the frame colour.

I've seen a few Hardtrax on eBay, they look great. All the 90's Saracens are amazing!

Agree, nice to see one being raced.
There is fb pages for alot of bike makes but unfortunately i cant seem to find a saracen one...

what does everyone think of the new saracens?

I have just got a load of coloured cable sleeves. Pink and purple to match the frame. She's gonna be loud and proud lol

So an update...It seems mine is a 94 saracen andes.
Its still in the build process but very nearly finished. Terrific bike. The rockshox fprks are still nice and bouncy, just right. I would however prefer the rigid fprks for it. Going to be difficult to find the forks in the colour of the frame.

I have a new addition to the saracen family!
A saracen sahara elite 1991.
Black with purpley pink decals. All original.
Next on my hitlist is a red saracen estay frame! What a thing of beauty.

Anyway, i managed to get some purple and skinwall tyres for the 94 andes.
Ill try get some pics up soon.
