Something exotic.....

[keitht]

Budget upto £350..though may have swaps/trades etc...

Wanted exotic early/mid 90s project......17/18" frame....steel ideally.

Can be full bike, part built or frame and forks etc....does need to be original though, or at least painted professionally ( as was )

UK, or USA, or from any where else in the world....

Bit vague I know, but I will know what I want when I see it.

Edit. Exotic is probably the wrong term, something specifically non mass produced, from a more artisan or small production builder/brand.
Something with a nice paintjob/design.

Hmm, not exactly what you're after but what about a red Cinelli Ottomilainsu with XT M730, about 17" in size, in very good condition throughout?

Thanks, its a good suggestion, I had in fact looked but the list of names just muddled my thoughts even more.
I have been out of the scene for a few years and have lost touch with whats what, prices etc hence the rather vague and pitiful request
So, In truth I have no idea, and was just relying on some random offer of something I probably have never seen or would.

I do have fond memorys of the Breezer Sky and Overbury Pioneer....not exactly exotic.
Looking back through the other stuff I had, the other standout is a 96 Klein Pulse II...

Maybe I should focus the mind a little more....

Re:

I could be tempted to part with my Slingshot as It's still awaiting a rebuild after ages....! PM if you're interested

 

[dyna-ti]

Yeah, a Slingshot

+1

I'd love a slingshot myself. Love how they look.

Re:



I bought it but it´s a little too small for me.
Really exotic swiss framebuilder and rare with the original stem/bar.

Re:

Putting this on hold for now as I am just unable to pin down what I am after...
Many thanks to all who made gorgeous offerings.

In the interim I think I am going to either get the Bravado built back up, or buy something complete to ease myself back onto the trails.
