Ever since I saw one back in the day when I searched my first mountain bike at Halfords, I have wanted one, there is just something about that first love that still lingers and I just need to know what I am searching for. A complete bike would be the ideal, but frame and forks maybe. At some point I will get one, but what I would like to know is what I am searching for.
That bike I first saw with a price tag far beyond my means was a Saracen, but with an e-stay frame and magura hydro stop brakes, what was it's name?
But for some reason I have a liking for Saracens despite what others think and the e-stay is something that fits my bill towards what I call a frame for British conditions, the frame is part of the way towards my ideal bike, but what were the early Saracen e-stays called, what models were they so I can keep an eye out ?
I know Alpinestars did an e-stay, there is one locally, but I want a Saracen.
