Regrettably for sale is my 1993 Rockhopper Comp. Size 18".
Spec is:
Chainset- Suntour XC Pro (46/36/26)
Mechs- Suntour XC Comp (R) XC Comp (F)
Shifters- Deore thumbies
Stem- Ritchey flip with Oddysey quill converter
Headset- Shimabo 105
Brakes- XC Comp cantis with Suntour toggle and XC Comp levers (drilled)
Wheels- Araya rims, Suntour hubs, Wheelsmith stainless spokes, Suntour XC Comp 8spd Cassette
Tyres- Onza Porc II's Kevlar folding
B/B- XT cartridge
Saddle- Rolls (bare and drilled!) on generic Kalloy seatpost.
Weight- 25lbs
Description:
A really great bike with origional paint and decals. Has a few scratches and cable rub marks but generally excellent and very very presentable.
Done very little miles in my ownership but it rides just great. A really simple, fast and good looking retro MTB.
Has a light dent on the down tube and one on the seat tube (camera couldn't pick them up).
Only problem I've ever had is that the B/B is a bit too short and as such I had to take the spacers off the inner chainring to get it to clear, hence the inner chainring is locked out because of that bottom bracket.
Get a slightly longer axles B/B and you're away. It doesn't like changing down the cassette into 7/8th but this just needs adjustment really. Oh and the seatpost is a bit tight but I think it's just a bit gunked up down there.
All in all a fantastic retro bike in a lovely retro colour that's ready for work!
Priced to sell fast at a measly £145.
Would prefer collection from Leicester city centre, can meet at the train station if neccesary or if you really hassle me enough I could courier it for an extra £20 to anywhere in the UK.
Thanks for looking, safe riding
