    Hey Guys,

    With a lot of people here been interested in bikes a long time I was wondering if anyone had a pre-2000's hard tail mountain bikes. preferable GT, specialized, Trek or similar lying in a corner of a shed. Can be a complete bike or just a frame, anything considered.

    I have nothing in the work-stand at the minuet and I want to give an old bike a new lease of life.

    PM me what ever you got.

    Thanks,

    Pete

    It is in good condition and almost entirely original

    Sorry for the delay.

    I don't have a smartphone and forgot my camera yesterday so apologies for no pics.

    I looked at it yesterday and noticed the wheels were rebuilt with new 819 rims and it has a newer crank.

    Other than that it looks pretty original.

    Hopefully will remember to bring the camera tomorrow.

    Sorry for the confusion but here is a pic of the bike.

    I have since cleaned the bike and replaced the inner and outer cables last week. There was no need but did it anyway.

    That's amazingly original, I remember them when they came out. This probably deserves a thread on its own.


    I have a 95 haro that I'm rebuilding.
