Sorry if this is too far off topic, but as Klein's are no more here and so few of these are around then hopefully it will be a classic one day!
Anyhow, the time has come to move on from my trusty Palomino as I want a longer travel bike.
This rig is amazing, very light, climbs like a goat and looks awesome.
Its a 2004 model, bought in 2005 and has seen pretty limited use over the last couple of years. I have a very small flat in London and it spends most of its time stored in a wardrobe....so its well pampered!
Condition is good, I have had the magnesium alloy monolink bridge replaced under warranty about 18 months ago (as they apparently had a bad batch when it was made which could result in play in the rear end)along with new bushings to all the links. Had only ridden about a dozen times since then. Also had the forks serviced by mojo at the same time as the lockout had stopped working, so they fitted a new valve.
Spec is as below:
Frame: Palomino XV size Large (fits 5'8 - 6'2)
Forks: Fox F100 RLT
Wheels: Bontrager Race Disc
Groupset: Full XT - XTR rear mech
Stem: Thomson Elite
Seatpost: Thomson Elite layback
Headset: Chris King
Bar: FSA 190 alloy
Its has the usual scuffs and scrapes, nothing too bad and no dents or any such damage. There is some chainsuck to the stay, which has been touched up and wouldn't be noticable with a neoprene protector put on.
And that's it! Pics as follows:

Looking for £700 ono. Cost about £2600
