Hi mate, funny you should say that I bought mine back yesterday, and hoping to do the peaks on it tomorrow. :D

It had Exage gears in a putty grey colour, exage hubs, Alesa 6021 rims, and odd quality bits scattered about.

Edit, Is yours "pink" aka magenta? ;)

no idea what year mine is as the shifters are quite modernish, so I'm pointing at 92 as a guess. :?
 
For you I've had a rummage, though its hard to see the spec here and this was after i 'modernised' it for the commute duties..
Gonna start a readers rides thread tonight as I get it back in the right era and guise for tomorrow. :D

I still have some matching colour bars for it, took em off as I thought they might be creaking but that was the flex stem, the bars do look they may have been over tightened at some point though.
 
Ah thats excellent, now have something to look at for some info, cheers shall post pics as it gets under way.
 
No probs, good to have someone interested! :D

Keep an eye on readers rides, gonn awang a few pics up tonight after a quick service and bar/stem/tyres transplant, and a report after tomorrow, 20 miles on a bike thats too small for me that I have not been on for over a year! :D

Look forward to seeing yours

Whats the story with yours?

A few guys at the peaks were asking about the putty white Exage kit, quite odd this Exage LT, where did it fit into the range? wearing it out with my shoes though.
