Erm....late night eBay purchase of a Sunn of some sort....

:facepalm:

In my defence: I'm ill. And have worked ALL day and been an absolute trooper (I'm also now full of cider with a rum and coke chaser) I've also been actively looking for a steel frame in my size, that wasn't a Kona but had those attributes. I'd thought maybe a Voodoo, even another Breezer....

Then this turns up on eBay. And I like it. A lot. Sunn Revolt Fuji SL apparently. Of course, BITD I had the catalogues etc, from John Towl in Launceston, Cornwall, when holidaying down there in the late 90's I picked the things up and now....well I reckon I sold them at some point!

Any thoughts/insults/recommendations....? The fork will go almost instantly in favour of either a P2 or something suitable sus wise. Maybe even a carbon V brake fork, who knows..... :mrgreen:

Oh, and does anyone want a Marin Mount Vision frame.....??

Re:

I like it, and they were well regarded in the day

What is wrong with the forks :?: :?: :facepalm: :facepalm:

She's at it again

Good score though, I had a lovely Sunn for a while with Obyss forks (needing work), Syncros and RaceFace finishing kit. Lovely bike.

Re:

Very rusty, not straight blade. Perhaps I'm being a little over picky....

Actually secretly quite chuffed about this purchase, TBH.

Re:

Ha ha! I'm at the nervous stage now, where I wonder if I'll get a message from eBay saying the item has been lost, damaged or broken, because in fact the seller doesn't want to let it go that cheaply... :facepalm:

Toying with the idea of a respray but I think the main frame isn't too bad at all, it's just the forks that are scraped and rusty.

Re:

Good purchase! it's a great ride *thumbs up*

If u decide to go with another fork I'd happily buy this one for my rusty dented Revolt gp ;-)

Re:

Absolutely!

I'll let you know, once it's here and I've had chance to look it all over.

Will look great with a P2 ;-) Hope the seller's into karma and you get it
