Dated this orange patriot! thanks

[bikeworkshop]

Has the canti bosses as well as disc, so I'm thinking around 2000.
I thought this colour scheme was common, but I struggled to match the image online.
Perhaps there were a few similar sold by the local orange dealer, "bike bristol" (rip) meaning its what we saw most.
I'm about to list it on ebay - previous buyer said:


I find "not bidding" works really well, but that's hard for some to grasp.

Spot on with the 2000 estimate

Yeah it's a 2000 Patriot LT.

Perfect thanks
Let's see if he tries to buy it again

I've put the catalogue pages in there as it helps a buyer value what he's buying, so hopefully both raising the selling price and also the care and attention the new owner will give it

That is lovely - if I had the spare cash I'd snap it up purely for the canti mounts (yes, I am that old) - always been a disc front/v rear fangirl.

I have a Y2K model in the same size but without the v mounts (which has been resprayed by Orange at some point). Stripped down at the moment while I dally with hardtails but it's a lovely little frame.
