In good, straight condition, and it handles really well. They had a thread on Retrobike for the best bikes you’ve ridden, and these came out near the top. If you want an old 26” mountain bike that doesn’t ride like shit, here it is. Made in Japan.
Has been powdercoated in the past (In the original black colour). The only issues are: a bit of chainsuck, and the headtube is ovalized, so you need to shim (an old drinks can worked fine for me) in a headset.
The forks are Spinner (who made the forks for Klein), and are good. Prefer them to Project 2s.
measurements are:
19 ctt seattube
15.5 ctc seattube
27.2 seatpost
135 o.l.d.
6.5” steerer
comes with seatclamp, but no bolt
Collection from Leyton, east London, next to the Underground station/ASDA car park. Can probably deliver to Hackney, Bow, Walthamstow etc.
I’ve also got some bits that’ll go on these bikes, which I’ll post here before listing in the main classifieds.
