Orange mr NO

strange, it looks like a Mr O swing arm on a UFO front end, very strange.

A little overpriced you could pick up a 222 or evena 223 for that sort of money.
 
I don't think so, the Mr XC has a triangulated front frame like a Patriot.

Its a real oddity but as you say its over shocked
 
yup, another idiot with no clue who wanted more travel on a bike not designed for it, numpty.
 
Keitht, I am not sure that its a Mr White. Unless they fundamentally altered the frame design at some stage, could it be a prototype?

heres a Mr White from the 99 catalogue

heres my old Mr O which Enid now has As you can see its the later version with added cross member, the earlier version didnt have it. Note the down tube, its dead straight no kink where the seatmast is welded on.For all intents and purposes the Mr White is the same as the MR O. All the Mr White pics I have seen look the same as the MR O barring the top tube.

Same kink in the down tube as the ebay Mr O

The difference with the UFO and the ebay bike is obviously its a SPP swing arm with the pivot mounted above the BB and the UFO is a URT
 
Maybe the plaque on the toptube near the seat post actually carries some gravity to its origins then?

The swinarm pivot is in a totally different position too :?

Interesting :cool:
