I've only just built this up but one of my "unicorn" bikes has come up for sale so I could do with clearing this out of the garage.

The frame is a Kirk Revolution magnesium alloy from around 1992, the paint has been polished and new decals made by gil_m. The frame is sound, no cracks.
Forks are 2003 Marzocchi MX Comp with the earlier decals.
