I picked this up yesterday. It's a re-introduction to MTB's and the one bike I really regretted selling when I was younger.
It's been owned by the same guy since new. He replaced the original Manitou forks because they were undersprung for him. The forks are 100mm Z3 flylights. Rear tyre is a little on the bald side really. Hasn't been touched in a while but is all working as it should. Will need new cables, grips and brake pads. But the plan is to put modern wide (700mm) flat bars on it. Replace stem and post with black ones. New tyres and eventually repaint the forks and swing arm to match each other. The main frame I may just remove lacquer polish it up again and re-lacquer.
