Cheers for the comments - the daughters was 5' ish when I built it - she's probably about 5'5" now.
Don't get me thinking that I need to build a 17" bike for her

Which bit of the AluO serial no denotes the year? It's A108nnnn - so does that imply August '91?
I read a comment on here t'other day that the '89 frames had riveted cable-holders on the top-tube - which mine has?

I'd like to say I still own this but some theiving scum stole it from the school bike sheds many, many years ago.......

A real mix of kit: XT/LX, Pace (forks and rings), USE Post. Loved it.

It's theft did pave the way for a RC200 F2 which I stupidly sold a couple of years ago.

That's really smart and looks spot on.

I know it's not truly retro, but here is my Orange e6

 

[sinnerman]

forgot this! not an orange but friuty none the less!

i wanted an orange cross bike but they don't make them so this is my interpritation, based on a clockwork paint scheme

green in colour, so named it the 'lime' and called it a 'crosswork'

wanted the green brighter but it will do!

the sweetest lime.................mmmm.i like a lot.....

Don't think I'll ever stop kicking myself for not getting in on your Prestige first. Special bike.
