Formalities out the way... Here's what I've got.

Shimano LX M550 Hubs laced to Araya CV7 Rims

The tubes are very old so I'd recommend replacing them. Will be posted in wheel box - £35
I thank you - pics below, if anybody wants more detailed shots or more info just holler (or ask politley, I'll respond to either)
1997 Proflex Beast SOLD
With some regret I'm putting this up for sale - bought off of Sidewinder who in turn had bought it off clockworkgazz, I had the idea that if I include my g/f on rides she might be a bit more positive about my spending but as is always the way she hasn't quite got the bug...

Fork: Girvin Chubby Triple Clamp
Headset: Tange
Stem: Race Face 90mm

Saddle: Selle San Marco RS Duo
Seatpost: Bontrager
Seatpost Binder: Hope
There's a couple of stonechips but most have been touched up and don't detract, the seatpost has been chopped down a little, the front mech needs some adjustment and a couple of the spokes are a tad loose on the wheels but the bike has only been ridden 30 miles since I bought it (28 of those me...) - apparently something to do with not being able to touch the ground when you're sitting on the saddle.
I have changed the rear mech for a carbon composite SRAM 9.0 and the stem to a shorter Race Face version.
It's a really, really nice bike to ride, both shocks are very plush with the Chubbies being buttery smooth but I have my RTS to finish and a new arrival coming so needs must.
I paid £140 for it and considering I've added very few miles and a couple of new bits to it I'd sell for no less than that - £140 posted in a bike box
I'll also include the polished swingarm and original Kore stem below if should you wish to swap them over provided they haven't sold.
