[jivehoneyjive]

Hi mate, I'm up in Kinlochleven, near Fort William

 

[JustKev]

Is this the same one that was on Singletrack earlier this week?

 

[northerndave]

Ahhh. Fort Wiilliam is a bit of a trek. What's the history of it? Any seat tube rust??

 

[jivehoneyjive]

History wise from what I can gather, its had 2 owners and was built with current components in late 2000... just had a look and as you'd expect seat-tube has some internal surface rust, but nothing major.
