Great bike, not super light but responsive enough.

I've just bought it

Damn, there's no helping me!

I feel your pain

Had a few Carrera's from that era and all have been really nice bikes to ride and own complete with cool retro paint jobs
Enjoy it

It's quite bright and distinctive i don't think my Wife will fall for the 'I've had it for ages you just never noticed it' line

I love this era of Carrera. I have a few.

Pick it up over the weekend, just change the saddle and a quick lube and hopefully it should be ok.

This will replace my modern Giant roadbike.
