aston bike

The one I refer to was several years ago and was based on a top end hand built hardtail mountain bike.Dont know the price . I simply remember the article in a mtb mag.One of those bikes that has loads of simple class but in a traditional way. All aston did was to spray it but I would expect a top class finish from them. If I spent hours rooting through my copies of old mags I could probably find it but there is better things to do with life.Certainly it wasnt the blinged up machine in your photo so if all is not as it was then so be it

My post wasn't intended as a criticism of the older Aston badged Roberts, as the owner to two top notch examples of Chas Roberts work I expect the Aston version was very nice indeed. In fact i think i recall seeing one in an Ason showroom, could be mistaken as my memory aint what it was. But the new one - twenty five grand? Hmmmm..........

Even just two or three of those words in one sentence is sufficient for one to reach for the shotgun....
