Hi all,
I’m selling my beloved old skool mountain bike on ebay, details and link below. I could take it off ebay if I get a decent offer of let's say £70.
ebay item number = 220781123495
This bike has been well used and well loved by me for the past 20 years and has still got some life left in it or it could be used for spares. This XT model was the top of the AlpineStars range of bicycles in it’s day, costing around £1,000 (around £1,600+ in today’s money!) and the bike is packed full of quality and top of the range components.
More recently, the original fixed aluminium dropout holding the original rear derailleur failed and as a result, the rear derailleur has been swapped by a bike engineer for a cheap derailleur with the hanger plate attached and new rear wheel to get back on the road. The bike is usable and the repair is holding up. Details of all parts below and plenty of photos. The bike is in the original black with decals and has numerous stone chips to the paint work from a couple of decades of riding!
If you want to know more or would like to arrange a viewing, please get in touch.
Buyer to collect or arrange own courier. Happy to take cash on collection, otherwise PayPal payment.
