Sold 1996 Saracen Kili Pro

[Billyroger]

1996 Saracen Kili Pro with Ritchey dropouts. I took the frame back to raw steel, used primer and Spray.Bike Pewter Silver, added Retro Decals decals then gloss transparent finish. So glad I rescued this frame.

The bike has only been ridden in the garden since built just to check all functioning, feels great with a 1x10 (i know there are haters but for some bikes they just work) and wide bars, it is also pretty light.

Full spec:

• 19" 1996 Saracen Kili Pro frame with Ritchey drop outs
• 1997 Rock Shox Judy XC
• Alex Rims on LX Parallax hubs
• Flite saddle
• Syncros stem
• Specialized bars 560 wide
• New Schwalbe Billy Bonkers tyres – like gold dust currently
• Easton seat post
• Shimano XT rear mech
• New Superstar narrow wide 34T chainring with blue Superstar bolts
• Shimano XT 10 speed shifter
• New Brand X headset
• UN51 BB
• Avid 3 V Brakes
• Shimano Exage 500 LX cranks
• Shimano M535 SPD pedals
• Token grips
• Bolany 10 speed 11-42 cassette
• Mech extender

Reduced to £400, this doesn't cover the build cost (I went a bit over budget but couldn't help it and it was fun), the many hours put in to it come for free.

Collection from HP22

Reduced to £400, the build cost more than this and the bike hasn't been used since completed. I need the space as I've gone a bit silly with purchases recently.

How big is it?

How big is it?

It's |------ this big ------|

Or as big as it is mentioned in the advert ;-)


Sorry couldn't resist, though be safe in the knowledge that it took far too long to get the lines on my phone keyboard, as I tried to find the symbols and autocorrect kept kicking in.

Ha ha I read that advert about 30 times before I posted my question and for the life of me couldn't see the size. Now I can see it's a 19" which is a bit small for me unfortunately!

Free bump though.
