its hard to know with out a frame number and you cant always rely on looking at the kit. so not sure 1984-1986?

shame the don't post to the uk as that looks like a good price. hope you win.,

Frame is dated , it's one of the first mountainbikes Tom Ritchey build
Sadly it was stolen ( not by the Ebay seller in this case !) but the original owner got it back with the help of Repack Rider, who knew the bike and the owner , after he read the topic on MTBR .
