What’s the one bike you really want but cant find, etc

[Once A Hero]

I’d want 1 1/8” as all my forks are that size. I’ll have to investigate that …..

Good luck!

I’d love to see a decent 89 Dawes Quest XT, black and pink, with a Brooks sAddle

Might not like it now, but back then I thought it was the nuts

Hi Nick, I saw your very old post. I have one of these, let me know if you want to see some pictures.

Here you go. I think I got it in around 1989? It was a Dawes Quest XT Special Edition. I have got the Brooks saddle somewhere in the garage. It has all the original components.

I hand wanted so badly a 20 inch framed Kona Explosif in True Temper or Reyndolds 853 in unmolested condition and a 20/21 inch framed Stumpjumper Pro in Ritchey Nitanium. Those I have seen for sale were either too rusty, scratched and too small. I was also thinking of adding a spare frame of a Trek 8000/8500 but again rarely seen those in 21.5 inch frame size.

Got to be an uncracked NISHIKI ALIEN 90/91 red with chrome rear. For the UK pretty much unobtanium

For me, it's the needle in the haystack: the 1990 Cannondale SM Omega:

Re:

1997 Kona Hot and a 1997 Kona Kapu.

I don't think I've seen an early season 97 Hot in my size. I've seen a 97 Kapu in my size, just 1 though and sadly for me the owner quite rightly, isn't in a selling mood!

One day they will be mine. One day...

Oh and Roland Greens Hei Hei but that's never going to happen.
