What is THE MTB holy grail and what is YOUR holy grail
- Thread starter john
- Start date
he worked for them. learnt from horst. admittadly AMP execution was pretty appaling. frames cracking & breaking all over the place but their intional ideas deffo spawned many new bikes. yeti asr, titus racerX still strong selling XC bikes, which are basically reworked AMP B3 mac strut with a swing link to take the sideloads off the shock.
holy grail is blondes & brunettes, chocolate & strawberry all over again

I always understood that Turner was an employee at AMP before starting up on his own. Sad to see now that someone who was involved with the "horst link" from the begining has now been prevented from using it in his own designs after legal action from Ellsworth.

THE Holy Grail - John Tomac's Yeti C-26 from the 1990 Worlds. I have a picture of it somewhere....
My Holy Grail - I've said it before but still a 1990 Klein Attitude in team colours, size L/XL with original forks. It wouldn't become a garage queen either! (although if a Yeti C-26 became available and i had the money I'd buy it to hang on the wall)

I did see it Scant - i also heard of a complete bike or possibly just complete frame selling for $10k
how much did you see that 1 sell for carsten
.. just a tad less than $10K! :shock: although to be fair ex tomac owned raleigh replica racer frames are $7000 & furtados C26 made $7800(ish?)
