Selling my first mountain bike *sniff*.

 

 

I bought this from new when first getting into mtb’ing and it holds a lot of memories for me.

 

 

Well built, good components that were built to last but as I haven’t ridden this in maybe 10 years, I decided that I need to be unsentimental and let her go.

 

 

All gears lubed, brakes sweet and ready to ride as if it were new. It is a large frame – 21″.

 

 

Bike is 20 years old so has the odd very minor spot of rust here and there but in overall very good condition.

 

 

Spec (which I can’t guarantee as I found it elsewhere so caveat emptor and all that) is as follows:
