Nishiki Alien

[JustKev]

Yep. Still surprised nobody bought nishiki's when he advertised it at the begining of the year. Was in fantastic condition and nicely built up...

Someone did!

Oh, alright then! Who was that someone?

BB - I don't know who bought the frame - when i enquired it was gone.

I bought a few parts from it though.

Kev, me too!

Nice set of wheels! Was going to go for the cranks too but found some others I prefered...

He mentioned at the time that someone in Australia was after the rear frame only...

Who might that have been?

Anyone know who bought the nishiki's Nishiki Alien ACX?

Looks yummy.
Seem to allways remember them in White?

original aliens were steel, and painted white as you recall.

the alien acx had a square-tubed alloy main triangle with a bolt-on steel rear end. a friend has one in a nice red/orange/copper color, and apparently they could be had in black as well.

fyi.

There was also Alien AL with full alloy frame, Suntour XC Comp components and silver paintjob. My friend had one.

T'was me.

(Sorry for the late reply. Just found the thread. )

Just finished the build. M900 with RS-1's.

Compliments my NOS '90 ACX very nicely. Recently picked up a '90 Ariel as well.
