i done alot of cycling back in the day :LOL: . i raced on these two bikes, but then the car licence was got and the bikes never seen the light of day. they mustve been in my parent roof space for the last 14 yrs.



1st its a specialized stumpjumper m2 s works. mostly xt/ lx. although the wheels are only a couple of years old. as i had an idea to get back out on the bike which never developed into anything.. think its around 1992ish.

2nd giant cadex, mostly shimano 105 with a couple of 600 bits. cxp 30 rims on 600 hubs. i think its around 1993-95.


there must be quite a few like myself that has bikes like this hiding in the roof space.

Are you thinking of riding them again?

You must - even if it's only a few miles to start - and the MTB is ideal for Retrobike rides!
 
The specialized is my favourite. think thats why i think ive kept it for so long.
Ive been thinking about getting back out on the bike but with work and a 2 yr old i probably wont. theyll just lie for another few years gathering dust. lol.
