Not that any of it matters 25 years on, but I don't think it was available until 98 in the Uk, and I think this Ano Blue Carbon was a Mid season special too.

A little more special because of the Ano and not paint, some subtle and choice spec changes too from the yearly catalogue. (unless you have a mid season press release, I don't think you will find it in the 98 year brochure either).

Thanks! It did always make me wonder as I could never find this one in the catalogs…

My shorts get all tight when I see a Marin affixed to an early Manitou…

Nice bikes y’al!

Quality over quantity this month, easy choice for me though. Good luck to all.

I was torn, but voted for the RTS in the end
Mcada certainly posts some classy bikes.
The Potts appears to be a very fine looking machine, but I’ve never heard of Steve Potts or seen one in the metal, so I guess I struggle to appreciate it for what it is.

Steve Potts, along with Charlie Cunningham and Mark Slate were the founders of WTB.

Joint 3rd…I’ll take that based on the standard of machinery that it was up against…And the fact that it was only a Zaskar…

Well done @mcada and everyone that entered
