(NOW SOLD)
@spj7 I found this URL below for size.
I ride a (1995) Trek 930 on 19.5" and I am 5'10" the size is perfect for me and I have a short inside leg measurement of 30" but proportionally a long body.https://www.trekbikes.com/gb/en_GB/understanding-trek-mountain-bike-sizing/
so 19.5" c-c would suit rider of 177-188 cm 5'9.7”-6'2”

I saw this Trek 820 on a facebook group in Bristol and thought there’s got to be someone out there who would value a NOS Mountain bike, even if you don’t want to make an offer, you have to at least marvel at the brand spanking newness of it?
I have never seen an unused production mountain bike cryogenically preserved in time, and then listed for sale, have you?

So am I :-) Why on earth would Park Tool discontinue such a useful tool, surely there has to be another manufacturer who can see a business opportunity? Think how many LBS could use one of these Globally and you begin to see the scale of the potential opportunity. http://www.sjscycles.com/Instructions/Park/Park_Seat_Clamp_Instructions.pdf
