The 'Barn Finds' are still out there....

I want the forks. Wishing I'd never sold mine...... :cry:

Sounds like you want to keep the name of the thread on STW to yourself Pete, you could make a mint!

No, I think I would get shot if I bought home another bike...

... I'm just enjoying the thought of loads of us scrambling around on STW and then emailing the guy who posted this! :twisted: I reckon he may get an understanding of it's worth by the number of people PMing him!!

I know this bike, and have met the owner. Infact I lock my work bike to that very place, he's nicked my spot.
I'd give up chaps, he knows...

from my experience he's safe from the crackheads. They nick anything full sus but leave the pimp hardtails well alone. I had a fisher cake and a cannondale jekyll stolen before i went back to riding a ti hardtail. it never gets a second look.

Well please tell him to pop a proper lock on it!!

Oh and if he ever wants to swap those forks for ones that work I have the same things but in 100mm hub spacing and with elastomers that bounce! (I'd love to get those 115mm spaced ones on my bradbury FS!

Where abouts in leafy Surrey are you Roly? I used to live in Westcott (up on the Heath past the church
