This month we'll just have a regular competition so anyone can enter their new old builds.

Useful for the poll if you can structure your nomination as follows:

username's Year Manufacturer Model , e.g. John's 1990 Kona Lavadome
Image(s) MAXIMUM OF 2
Finally please include a link to your machine in the relevant Reader's Bikes section. If you don't have an existing post now is the time to add one with as much detail as you like!

Nominations thread will run for the entire month. Entries submitted after July 31st will not be counted. The poll will go up shortly after the nominations close and will run for a week.

Never seen a painted Merlin before :cool:
 
Re:

I have never see another with paint.
He has the big Shimano sticker on left chainstay, as had the sponsored riders.
Difficult to find photos of this era ...
 
Dami’s 1997 Tunturi Kayapo fully restored to its original form with full Shimano STX-RC.

Its Lovely, But we got rules, Enter a different bike,
viewtopic.php?f=26&t=347885


Each bike can be entered into two BoTM polls as follows
BoTM and rBoTM - bikes can only be entered once in a normal month and once in a special month. That is you can enter any bike TWICE (unless it wins in which case it cannot be entered again).
98+ BoTM - bikes can be entered twice into any poll - unless it wins in which case it cannot be entered again.


Otherwise we really will be on a slippery slope, Next stop, unfinished builds, and bikes long since sold.
