Wanted WTD British mountain bike Mercian/Longstaff/Roberts etc

[desmondo]

I’m looking out for a British mountain bike in a style probably dating from the 90’s. I am 5’ 9” so 18”-20” in size with a rigid frame and must have mudguard eyes front and rear. I’m wanting one to do some off road touring. Anything out there gathering dust?

Thanks
Des

Hi, I have 2 x 18” Roberts, 1 White Spider, 1 XK2, both same metallic purple. Both have rack/mudguard fittings on the rear. The XK2 has pace suspension forks, the White Spider has Pace RC 31 rigid carbon forks both forks have disc mounts. Both are v brake on the rear.

Both owned from new, lightly used.

I have all the bits to build either or both back up into geared bikes, The white spider was built up as a dingle speed.

Any use?

Martin

Yep, tempted by the XK2 as I’ve never owned one!

Also a Pace RC300, but no mudguard eyes on that . Knackered joints has required an e-bike, so these must go
