Original spec except for the bars, wheels, cassette, chain, bottom bracket, front brake. But the replacements are in keeping with its vintage. I’ve noted the non-original spec items in the detailed list below.
The original (German!) catalogue can be found here:

It has been ridden back in the day, but it is in good condition for its age. The ball burnished finish has passed the test of time well with only a small amount of cable rub. A slight amount of play is in the linkage, but I have various bushing parts that I can include with the sale. The Hope C2 front brake needs bleeding. The WTB saddle has some wear along the back. But apart from that the frame is a very neat used condition.

It's a lovely old bike. Ahead of its time and light for a 100mm full suss of its day. The Marzocchi Z1 forks were (still are) super plush and supple forks. It’s not in pristine condition – as it’s been ridden like old bikes should have been. It always draws a lot of attention when it comes out on sunny summer days.
£350 + postage
