Sold SOLD !!! 1991 APLINESTARS AL-MEGA DX FOR SALE

[3onner]

My immaculate Alpinestars Mega DX is up for sale to make space in the workshop.
- MINT or NOS parts all over this build - check out the pictures
- Paint and decals are perfect and vibrant neon.
- The fork was serviced less than 100km ago by Tim/Fork English
- Frame size I would class as an 18.5 or 19" - I can measure top tubes etc on request but for reference I'm 6ft 1" and its spot on for me but I would say Im at the upper limit - so best suited for a 5ft 10" - 6ft 1" for ultimate comfort.

We all know that breaking it apart would be more lucrative but its offered as a period detailed total build to ride (or just stare at!!)

Price: £1000.00
If you are in mainland UK I'll even deliver it to you personally.

Nice, I wonder what my pre e-stay would be worth lol.

Nice. Was this on display at the Malverns last summer?

Oh how i wish i had a spare grand lying around. What a bike!

 

[3onner]

Bumpety Bump.
Am I destined to keep it? Or is there a new owner out there???

 

[Cro-Mega]

Would folk ride this if they bought it? It is without doubt an absolute stunner and for me super-evocative of the golden era of MTB. If I could find a spare grand I'd grab it now. And then likely just use it to pop to the shops on, and hope that at least once a fellow bike nerd would give me a knowing nod. Respect the Alpine.

 

[3onner]

I would hope so.
I rode it. And love(d) every km or mile. Perhaps it doesn’t deserve deep winter mud bath riding but in the hard pack and dry stuff ….

New to the forum - but that is a very nice build, I’m tempted
