GT triple triangle early 90s

[spr78]

Hi all, as the title says - what would make life complete is an early 1990s, rigid triple triangle GT MTB. Ideally splatter paint or lightening/zebra stripes (white on black or black on white). Talera/Tequesta/Avalanche/Karakoram, that sort of thing. Not closed to others though. 18" or bigger, don't expect a minter but a tidy (and complete) one preferred. Oh and got to be able to post. Not asking for much here's hoping!

How's about a 1990 Karakoram? This would be well worth landing if you can head over to the Nottingham area,...if it's still available. Looks to be almost 100% original as well

where are you based? got an 18" Timberline from c1992 here, frame fork and stem only but can supply most of a full bike's worth - bit of a building would be needed!

Cornwall - great place to ride a bike but not so good for getting one of these Seen too many good ones go on ebay lately due to living too far away.

got a 18" 1992 avalanche... bought it some weeks ago on the bay...
then renewed all cables, front brake pads, new bottom bracket, salsa liplock clamp, 27,0mm seatpost,vetta tt saddle, ritchey wcs grips and plastic screws for the bottleholder, new rim tape, tubes and used michelin comp s lite

11,04kilo w/o pedals

rode it once to see if everything works and YES, it does! only the front derailleur needs a new setup cause I installed a new bottom bracket with 118mm instead of the 127mm which was way too long.

asking what I paid for incl. all new parts: 235€ plus postage(from germany) or a cannondale CAAD2/3/4 frameset with fatty...

the bike was meant to be a birthday present, but he doesn't like the triple triangle design

this was the condition when I bought it...

That's another nice one! Any idea what the postage would be, can give you details if needed for quote...

postage would be around 50€ to UK.
