For sale, my lovely 1997 Bontrager Privateer Comp. Almost all original components since it was hardly touched for the first 14 years of its life. I Have owned this since new and purchased it for over £1000 from Beeline bikes in Oxford.
Even the tyres are original
The bike is pre-Trek take over and the build quality is truly superb. The paint has a very tough undercoat. The rear stays have some scratches.
The saddle isn't original ( I chose not to go for the saddle when I bought it).
Comes without pedals.
