...and the spec is so bad.

This is an Overbury Pioneer, designed and built in England by Mr Overbury, long before Gary Fisher and his mates thought of riding down steep hills on old clunkers.

LOL.

I didn't know Overbury's were making mountain bikes in the early 70's!

Agreed....I'd wanna be poking that BB with a screwdriver before parting with any cash just to be sure...

The frame looks to be in reasonable shape to me to be honest, my worry is the fork. Where you goina get another one from, if they are as bent as they look. the dreaded achilles heel of this model im afraid, i waited for what seems like forever to find a good enough example, and paid well for it.

Given the bike, anywhere under £200 i think its a Bargain.

Mind you, at the sort of money it is at the moment, it would be a good buy for RODNEY..............

Oh hang on, Scrub that, hes not into Scene Bikes......... :facepalm:

AShame to let it go to waste.

if any one wants it. i am happy to braze in a bb bridge or sort a new fork for cost:

i still owe karma as I sold one with the same fork issue.

£92 seems fair, hopefully not in too bad a state. Who bagged?
