Here is my old friend as promised.
1991 Saracen Limited edition, all original apart from tyre's and a innertube. BB,headset,pedals and hubs are all still smooth as a nut. Even the toe clips are still branded saracen. 500LX groupset could do with a little adjusting and the saracen gel saddle is not as comfortable as it used to be but the tioga grips are still almost perfect. Only wish the farmer johns hadnt worn out.
Hard to believe I was bombing around Hamsterely forest every weekend on this very bike all those years ago. Still gets used daily without any hassle.
Ahhh, those were the days!!!
Anyway, I love this thread. Some very nice blasts from the past on here.
