What do you really love seeing on a gorgeous retro bike?

Do you want to see a pic of all my latest X-lite kit, residing nicely on a freshly built 93 Saracen e-stay...just to make things worse?

Cheers for that :roll:

Well it's worse for me, as it's sat there looking at me...while I cant ride because of a broken knuckle :roll:

Used to have most of the Xlite candy range on a spesh FSR stumpjumper, looked the nuts, couldnt tell the difference performance wise, but felt like giving the bike posh jewellery! Used to love the X country bar on it although I realised it did bend over the years of use

I wondered how this thread had progressed so far without going downhill.

I think I got that in near the top of page one

Ah yes - so you did. But you forgot to use an eyecatching picture for those of use who skimread without looking at the actual words.

I like bars so narrow the levers have to be at slightly different angles so they don't touch.

Love, or hate?

That must be fun and enjoyable off road - on road for that matter.
