Cheaper for Retrobikers
or sale is my 1989 Kili Flyer Comp. Frame is 19" ( top tube C2C = 22") and was re-sprayed by Argos back in 2013 with decals from Gil. I rode it a fair bit and you can see from the pictures it has a few battle scars. The frame itself has no structural damage - the only small issue is it seems that the stays have edged in a bit closer together from the original 130mm spacing and it measures around 126mm now. I always used a 130mm OLD wheel with a little squeeze - unless you get it cold set I think putting in a 135mm would be impossible.
I purchased this as a frame only from Saracen Steve - it had been shot blasted and therefore went off to Argos for finishing. Forks are not Saracen original - but a lovely Ritchey set which aesthetically look very similar. I believe the frame is technically just the Kili Flyer - not the comp version. There is a small difference between the two - I'll check it out and update the thread.
Photos below - you can see before painting, post, and how it is today. Loads of other images at my Flickr in this album:

Price is £130 posted UK mainland. Paypal gift. Collection welcome for £15 less... (Cranleigh, Surrey Hills, Epsom area...or short drive within the area - can discuss).
Included with the frame and forks is an XT sharkfin & Deore DX headset (both installed) plus the original stem (150mm) and bars (cut down to around 500mm like all true XC race bars should be!).
Any questions please shout.
