Nice bike, wanted one of those ever since I saw one at the bike show in Olympia in the 90s.

re:

only really nice looking bike scott ever made, ditch that ugly kore unit for something a bit more racier or flip it it deserves some xtr to that lovely frame and fork!

I like that. I would stick a thomson stem on it though, but looks sweet

thanks for the comments guys
I paid 175 for it and got the carbon manitous for another 40.
Not a great bargain but I'm happy!

On the lookout for a tasteful thomson stem now, cheers for the advice
