Just scored this beaut locally

Very light and quite rare bikes here in blighty, just ridden it home and its obviously been sat for a few years as its got a bit of cable stretch but other than that its a nimble bike, bars and stem look to have been swapped out at some point I suspect for shorter stem and highter bars but otherwise seems original, Now ... I'm past my carbon phase but couldnt resist this, Its in really nice condition with a minty XTR M900 croupset - Yes that is why I bought it, this will be harvested for a Brit build further down the line and the frameset will be up for sale soon, I know its a shame but I'm sure this could be built up into a superlight weight weenie bike by someone.

Re:

Not seen one of them before, proper monocoque jobbie.

You do know as you approach your front door there will be
a certain sound. Where many locks are suddenly securing the door, with your missus
on the other side of the door.
Hope you are ok kipping inthe shed from now on.

Those tyres look nice, just as I remember them. Win win al round, some nice XTR there.
I will look for the frame sale, pure curiosity of course ;)
