Revell Bikes dirt jumper - more info please :)

[sparkybhp]

Hi, quick post of this - I picked it up this evening after successfully winning it on eBay for (imho) a steal!
It needed a fork overhaul but I had these Manitou Black in my spares so I’ve put them on for now.
I was (vaguely) aware of Revell Bikes (my surname is Revell) but don’t know much about them. Anyone have any info or experience of them?
This one is really nicely specced with XTR disc brake, Nukeproof front wheel, Salsa seatpost, RaceFace crankset etc etc.
It’s surprisingly light but I’ve yet to ride it yet - looking forward to a spin out on it soon.
Any comments or info would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I don't think they made mtb frames for very long. Company owned by Anthony Revell, who is more of a bmxer

From what I can remember, they started making 4X frames in small numbers and I think these may have been hand built - really nice frames. Then they switched to making them in the far east, offering full bikes etc - 4X bikes, BMX and trials bikes.

I know nothing but I’m partial to a white hard tail frame. Looks like a nice bit of kit.
