Picked this up this weekend. According to the previous owner it has been in the garage for 17 years... It has been used for 3 years. I've never had a mountainbike with an elevated chainstay. I'm not sure which modell this is, i'm only familiar with the alien modells (anybody??). I know it's from 1993 and is equipped with Deore XT/DX parts. Wheels are Panaracer Smoke fitted with Mavic 261CD rims massive spokes and DX hubs. Bike is in fairly good shape besides some scratches no cracks! Don't know yet what i'm gonna do with it, haven't decided.








 
Wow, 'Instant Retro' how cool is that.

Don't do anything to it; just clean it, service all the moving bits and get riding. :mrgreen:
 
Ehmm.... I've allready cleaned and waxed it (wax on wax off...) Must admit it is a bit small for me..... :cry:
 
Nice, realy nice!
Mine Nishiki also is having ROSE signature in top tube - any info what's going on with it?
