Bargain at that price!

I sold a complete Yo with mostly xtr for a bit over 1k after it hung in the shop for a year.

The number of people who were going to buy it if only *** was a shop record.
Glad to see it gone.

I wish had seen it your shop (altho’ think I might of seen it online and not my size) … I really miss my ride ready Yo’s.

It’s hard to see which flavour FAT Chance forks are fitted , but that some are present is cool & Mavic headset rule from the center!

That rigid fork is a definite plus, ours had custom coloured quadras iirc
- but I've had one of those mavic headsets and if i had another one I'd put it on ebay toot sweet and fit a shimano.

Must admit I am tempted by this. A Yo Eddy is next on my list but ideally I want a Blue/Green Aquafade one

I’m also very tempted by the one on EBay but I don’t have £2k to spunk on it

Very prone to rusting particularly at the bottom of the seat tube - so a proper inspection is vital.
The repairs and repaint could cost you 500

Yes so I’ve discovered from looking at a few. Seems a bit of a design flaw not having any drainage exits but me still want one.

Must be patient, the right one will come along. Still very tempted to get @Ackers too but want to view it as worried about the down tube pitting

You can buy a cheap endoscope to plug into your phone - maybe an RB obsessive already has one you could borrow?
Oh hold on, obsessives don't like to lend stuff

looks like a bit of a clumsy powder coat job there - too thickly applied - if the serial has become unreadable that is a big negative, non matching black fork a highly personal choice and doesn't do anything for me. I think its possible to do a lot better than this but appreciate original ones are pretty scarce and the re-makes are not the same at all. Bit of a shame really.
