A couple of years ago, a 1997 Saracen Kili Team frame popped up on Retrobike and I didn't hesitate. The frame stayed on my attic for some years so last summer I decide to sell it. My nephew said he wanted it so I was glad it stayed in the family. But some weeks ago my nephew told me he decided to go for a more modern bike so this one came back to me.
After some thinking I decided to go semi-modern on it and do some upgrading. Back in 1997 this was a mid-range bike (STX-LX equipped) but as I had some older XT stuff in the spares box, I went for an early 2000's setup. Searched the parts bin for some useful stuff and found a decent stem and seatpost (Ritchey WCS "wet black").
