very, very cool

very nice
love that black and a bit of red touches
probably the best sunn bike of that time ( less "fragile" than the columbus exact)
black brubz would be cool though
never thought these yellow ones matched nicely with the bikes they were fitted on at that time !

strangely they fitted well my yellow serotta

Thanks Bruno. I have mixed feelings about the yellow hubs too - they do stand out and it might look too plain without them. I have some red Hope hubs on 517 ceramics that I thought would look cool but not sure about Hope hubs on a Sunn and I like having the original wheels.
I remember the Brubz3 hubs on your Serotta, very

the yellow hubs look fine.
i guess i prefered the bike with rigid forks though ?

For Sale

Hi guys,

On the subject of the excellent Sunn Revolt MTB, mine is very reluctantly for sale. You can view the ad on EBay:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/-/142306700116?

It's had a few upgrades from the original spec especially the Marzocci Bomber forks, Crud guards and all the X-Lite bars, stems etc. Still in very good condition and good working order.

If you're interested, please drop me a line.

Dobbs.
