Hot day in a small town... 13 miles outside my door. 19" 1990 Ritchey P-23. Full M730 XT top mount group with black crank and pedals. American Classic seat post (original spec RitcheyFD). 28H Ultegra front hub, Excellent to mint condition as can be seen in the pictures. One of those days when you just can't believe your eyes and you pinch yourself. I have had a Road Logic frame in the works for some time now...this addition makes for a nice Ritchey pair.

Superb. Those tyres don't look as though they've had a lot of use, yet anyway...

Just too nice... 8)

Really like the Ritchey range but somehow they never show up in the Dutch or even EU market.

Nice range of bikes you have at the moment Kevin!!!
(still looking for a 20" Zaskar pre 1996.....)

Cheers,
Martin
