had mine for 11 years now, purchased from the forum and built with bits i had in the shed and some new exotic carbon forks, not a thing of beauty but brilliantly functional solid and reliable. great frame, sliding drops make them great for single speed / fixed usage, but also great as a regular geared mtb.
used mine as a single speed for long rides on flat ground bike, canal rides, lee valley rides and a commuter, nice zingy ride, little bit of flex which makes it super comfortable, especially with carbon forks. mine was a candy red one in reynolds 631 ? ( equivalent ) tubing, unsure of the year of manufacture, dates range from 1996 - 2007 i think. the modern ones i think are alloy and mass produced in the far east, nothing like the joe murray steel originals.
they used to come up on ebay as nos frames quite regularly, maybe try retrobikes aswell
am thinking about converting mine to geared this year as a longer distance slick tyred mtb / road warrior for summer riding
I'd seen your posts about yours - looks great. If I can find one I'll be going for a smaller gear and knobblies for off road though. Making enquiries on retrobike as well, cheers
