that looks in great condition and I really shouldn't like it but I do

does the front wheel need flipping round- tread looks wrong?

 

[norton]

nos, never ever ridden! 19 years ago, unbelievable :shock: pedals are under the saddle, original grease on chain, etc

i'm fan of slopping top tube (my '97 kona exp is the best) but it's really beautiful. and had very fair price.

yeah, it was first pics, wheel has been flipped of course

my mate had a liyang alu bike, it got knicked when he was at school, some one jumped out of car at the front of the school. ran up to it and knicked it, he bought a Marin Bear Valley afterwards

i guess liyang is a rarity but it's too big for me... frameset will be sold during the next week. my plan was to build a mint stumpy from the early '90. :roll:

Thats a shame

PM Mr Kawasaki on here as he may be interested in buying, as he like rare stuff and is a tall guy
