"IF YOU DONT GET IT , ITS NOT FOR YOU..............."

I don't and it isn't! Rather weird I think that just because an item is associated with some one vaguely "famous" it acquires a "value" out of all proportion to its worth!

Each to their own.

obviously never ridden a bonty,i will be doing 100km at the honc on mine.perhaps you should get one and see what the fuss is about

To be fair he doesnt even need to do that, i wonder he he has ever used a V-Brake....?

Come on, we need some more photos. Not that I intend to buy it, but I'm getting low on vaseline and my arm is starting to ache; need some more inspiration.

Hope I have enough money to buy one next time one comes up....

Always wanted to have a go on one of these!

I have posted a fair amount of info amongst Emmas thread, i think all the prototypes/experimentals etc are here, with some exqusite stuff owned by Hollister and Mr Orange.

I have edited this as in retrospect my initial comments were out of line.

1: Go away silly man.
2: VRC could be a better home.
3: Jump off a cliff.

Pick two Aged One......this is a bleed'n for sale thread.

Any chance of telling us what it rides like? When I was in my twenties I had this idea that the ultimate MTB would be TI downtube , steel top tube and head tube or steel main triangle - with carbon seatstays and Ti chainstays.... Plenty of people did road bikes with alloy frames and carbon seatstays but really wonder what this combination gives comfortwise and what the trade off is on stiffness.

As I said ... always wanted to have a go on one of these..... but that's not going to happen so anecdotal evidence will have to do!

I also considered bidding on this - KB said it rode really well. 1 1/8 headset too

Are the components still the same as what came with it - garage original...?
