This is one of the 25th anniversary editions from 2006. It used to have the XT crankset, SRAM 9 speed derailleur and shifter pods, but someone (the bike shop downstairs?) has taken the trouble to swap some bits to make it appear a bit more retro.View attachment 722196
Not mine but it’s in the visitors centre at Coed Y Brenin if you’re ever that way for a ride! It’s immaculate
And the applied changes are a huge improvement vs. the 2007 bike in nice Retro look but originally equipped with parts simply not matching at all in my humble opinion.This is one of the 25th anniversary editions from 2007.

I've always loved this color, and it looks great with the tan!A 1997 A1 in light blue, fresh tyres, seats and grips.
Thanks for looking
