It was a sad day when I picked myself up off the ground to find the handlebars forced right over the top tube and the back wheel folded in half.

Having spent the preceeding four or five years as a proper mountain bike with gears and SIDs, it then spent a short while on the workshop wall before starting its new life as a to and fro bike.

I first got the frame a matter of weeks after starting work in a local bike shop, and realising that working in a bike shop was not going to help my plan of saving some money. At its peak, the P20 had Rock Shox Sid SL, Sram 9.0sl, Middleburn hubs and Avid Arch Supremes. It went to Skye, the Cairngorms, Lake District, North Wales, North Yorks, all over. Then I crashed it.
