Not been a post for a while!
89 Kili here - the pink one with Hacienda decals!

Nice, nice, we need pictures.

Nice. Can't believe I've forgotten to add 'pinky' to this thread.

Will update again once I add the yellow cable outers. It's my grab and go retro....and have no worries about getting this one covered in mud....especially as the amberwalls are now very rideable.

Cheers

Here's mine, it's NOT a fussy or super accurate build! Bought from 'Uncle' on here on eBay as a frame, I had a groupset from Dawes Ranger (I love those concave rims) and that lovely Nitto stem I found cheap on eBay. Couldn't fix or replace the Suntour Mountech rear mech for a reasonable price, but found this ARX instead. The stem only takes a 22.2mm bar, so I found some cheap motorbike bars which are very wide, but exaggerate everything in a way that I like for some reason. (700mm+) I also found a cheap Brooks66 saddle which the early ones come with, it's Klunker-tastic!!

I think the early 501 Saracen's weren't badged as a conquest?
