Thanks for asking. This bike was assembled by a colleague of mine who unfortunately died far too young of cancer. Dave Richards was responsible for starting the Reading All Terrain Mountain Bike Club (RATz) in 1991. His widow gave me the bike around 12 years ago after it sat in her garage since the late 90’s with barely turning a wheel. I have only used it a handful of times as it is too big for me and, I really don’t like the handling of old school MTB’s, I enjoy looking at it more than riding it! However, I have too many bikes in the shed so it’s time to loose a few. I think I could make more money by breaking it and selling parts individually but, I would like it to stay together if possible. Money raised will go to cancer charity(s).
