Just picked this up today one owner from new very tidy fully serviced came with original forks shimano speed pedals, full xt groupset mavic rims on xt hubs and it even has the original touch up paint and brand new tyres. It just wants a proper clean to my standards and she is ready to go at the next national event.

Awesome, a great buy. A set of Manitou sports would set it off a treat.
The forks are girvin pro fork I believe they are no longer trading. I had a quick ride round the street and the bike is set up perfect it just needs a couple of cables and that's it. I really thought someone would outbid me, well no one did and I am very pleased with what I bought

nice steel there mate.
that paintwork will probably look ace in natural sunlight! as you say just a good clean up, the quality is there for sure. girvin forks too.
looking forward to seeing it in the flesh. nice one.

I found they were good because they gave you a number of hand positions, but really more suitable for on rather than off road.
I swapped mine originally for a set of USE bars with bolt on bar ends and there was quite a bit of difference after that as the front end was sooooo much lighter.
As you will see mine has changed beyond all recognition (only the frame is original although I still have the forks - painted to match of course!) Nice to see one that is very original and you will enjoy riding it, that I can tell you. Stick the rigids back on first and give it a go like that before changing anything although I have to say that stem has to go!!
