Whyte JW-2

I am looking for one of my favourite bikes I have owned.

A Whyte JW-2

If anyone knows of one going for a (really) good price, please let me know.

Thank you.

If you are not sure what they look like, you can see here that they are quite distinctive:

Thank you.
 
If your'e having trouble finding a JW-2, Why not expand the search to include the PRST-1 whch was its premium "big brother". Same frame, but with more expensive bits, big gripper monocoque forks and beefier swing arm.

Also, don't forget the later quad link rear end JW-4's and PRST-4's. Better rear suspension, lighter swingarms and usually disc specific. Only real downside is that 14 of the bearings originate from the world of aircraft, and can be quite dear to replace..
 
Re:

Great news! Glad you've find one, a very nice one also! Great condition and original documents, keep them safe :) .
 
Fantastic. Now buy yourself a pair of fox RP23's to add a bit of precision over the garbage shocks originally fitted to the JW2, and enjoy everyone you ride past mouthing the words "What. The. F@&k" at you on every trail.
