Could it be or not be a kili flyer89/90

oldyeti55

Retro Newbie
bought this bike recently having owned a kili flyer in the early 90's
it certainly has the fillet brazing and the right colour but decals are odd - or they were as they were peeling and so removed them to get right ones sorted. This is going to be a rebuild and it is if correct a great frame. The bike won't be flash and will leave same colour as last one got nicked when frame colour was changed and my nephew left it outside a shop on his paper round - their would of had no idea how good the bike was.

Re:

Certainly looks like one to me. Forks could be from anything though if it's a limited edition.

Looks in great nick. Nobody did paint like saracen did.
 
Re:

think it could be frame coming out of saracen built with what was available or a rebuilt kili with parts someone had - my original one had tange switchblades. But my old one had lots xt bits
 
Re:

Worked for me when i raced in 90's. and the frame at heart works well it will be my 40 mile commute bike
 
Re:

40 mile commute! Good effort!

The one I had was decent, but cAnt honestly say it was better than my uu trekker from the same time.

Not lightweights either!
