Retro Newbie
£250 ono, collected from Nantwich (Cheshire)
I am reluctantly selling my 1993 Orange Prestige. It was built by Henry Burton Cycles in Stafford, as a combined Christmas / birthday present and I've owned it since new. For the first ~4 years of its life it was regularly ridden and enjoyed on trails and enjoyed. when I turned 17, cars took over and it was only occasionally used for the following 5 years. After that, with work taking me around the globe and it was very rarely ridden, spending it's life in a locked garage. Fast forward to the present day - I now have a 2 year old son and with many of my friends wanting a new hobby, I decided to start riding again and treated myself to an Orange Crush AM - for no other reason than its the new version to the bike I loved when I was 13!
Condition:
The bike was always cleaned after use and despite being 22 years old is in great condition, with very few marks. It has a scratch on the cross bar (done when I fell off the day after getting it..). Aside from that, there are just a couple of small marks. And that's it!
Spec:
19.5" frame (large) in purple / platinum fade (Original factory. Not repainted)
Sun Mister purple anodised alloy wheels with stainless steel spokes
Deore XT shifters & brakes
Deore XT V brakes
Deore XT bottom bracket
Deore XT front derailleur
Deore XT rear derailleur
Deore XT cassette
Deore XT seat post

I've taken photos of the bike which I can email; I'm new to the site and couldn't fathom out how to upload them!
(If anyone can tell me how to quickly do this will upload them)
Any questions, please ask
