I was hoping it to be in brand new shop condition. When I saw it my heart sank, I had to say no. I think it what was left of it has gone to the local tip.

The frame had two very large dents and had a lot of rust around the bb. It really wasn't worth saving unfortunately.

Here is my Diamondback ascent ex. I picked this up from Ebay during the week. It has the usual marks as you would expect from a used 90s bike and is no way a garage queen and it never will be. It rides great but I could do with a little more rise on the bars. I was offered one of these from a...

I'm definitely going to.

It's definitely that colour scheme. I was unsure if they done a normal ascent ex and the ltd in the same colour.

I've been offered a Diamond Back ascent ex from a neighbour. It's currently in the depths of his garage so I haven't seen it but he told me its black with pink stripes. If it was a Diamond Back ascent ltd how would I tell compared to a normal Diamond Back ascent ex 🤔? Any help would be much...

What did the LTD have that set it apart from the Ascent EX??

Wow, that's a cracking job 😂. That really does look awesome.

I'm really looking for the earlier steel frames. Thanks anyway

Yes looking for the steel mainly.

I'm not on Facebook unfortunately.

😂😂 I've just realised how that sounds. I was supposed to say collection from Hampshire. It's like the wild west in Hampshire.

I'm looking for early 90's stumpjumper or rockhopper frame and fork. Would have to be 19" upwards. I'm based in Hampshire but obviously happy to pay p&p for the right frame.

So after a random Gumtree search at the beginning of the summer, I found this rockhopper. 30 minute drive away so I thought I just as well buy it. It's been in the shed for most of the summer but was treated to a small strip down of crusty parts and a small clean and polish.

I don't think anyone from here got this as it was £250 open to offers. Sold for £256 on ebay (own up...who was it? ).
