Hello all, got pointed in the direction of this forum by a helpful fella in a discussion about a few upgrades for my bike, what a place!!!
The bike is a Specialized FSR comp that was brought back in 99 IIRC (98 or 99 model, cant be 100pc) that only cover about 150miles before it got put away in my folks garage. The the rest of my life carried on, and its stayed pretty much unused until a few weeks ago when a few of my mates decided to get bikes
Put some air in the tyres (originals!) some lube on the chain and took it for a spin - you'd never know it had sat for all those years, i expected at least the fork seals to be duff (suspect the forks could do with a service tho)
Excuse the poor pictures
