Sorry to raise an old thread but I had one of these Black Mambas back in its day! If I remember rightly is was 1990 and it cost me the princely sum of £500! Quite expensive for a 17 year old! :shock.
Bought it from Dorridge Cycles in er... Dorridge, Solihull.
Remember spraying the forks bright flouro yellow to make it look like a Marin.......... stupid boy.
Anyway it got knicked not long after I put a flexstem on it.......... :cry:
