Still might struggle, in my eyes it is frame only with a few parts thrown in. Having said that, it could be well worth it if the (often dented) top tube is dent free, as it appears to be - I would want some drive side pictures though to be safe!

Looking nice that, the colour really pops! Always good to see a decent steel CX frame, especially something such as Orbit :) Personally I would have opted for white decals but the black does lend a kinda stealthy, more modern look. Will look forward to seeing what direction the build takes -...

I am 50:50 on this. I would love an early Yo, but agree the price is too strong. And those decals are shocking! I guess I’ll stick with my Wicked :)

I would be expecting a full description of the bike and better photos too :)

Sell the stem and skewers and you likely have your £100 back. Somebody go get it!

As Bontrager himself would probably say: cheap, decent, far - pick two!

TBF the forks and flip flop stem are well worth the effort, especially if you have an early Zaskar. Strip, paint gloss black and voila :)

Pretty sure they’re early Salsa Flip-Offs :)

Almost could be the makings of a killer build...that Surly fork needs ditching ASAP though. A couple of extra chainlinks woundn't go amiss either!

Very nice, but sadly not entirely OEM spec and way, way overpriced..... Looks like it may be on the 'bay for a while!

My goodness, the bike is even better in the new pictures! Could almost be mistaken for NOS if it wasn't for the add ons. Such a good score and I love how this has opened up such a cool back story. I can almost smell that classic bike shop aroma of tyres and oil through that picture :) Possibly...

Very well looked after indeed. Not a mark on those rims, original tyres, spoke protector still there and everything in top condition. My money is that it belongs to a wealthy chap who wanted to get into MTB, but never quite had the inclination to do so. These US built treks are also hugely...

Just so happens I've been eyeing one of these up! I was half thinking of using it as a donor but it looks too good for that. Hopefully it's your gain :)...

Nice spot that, shifters are worth almost the asking price alone if they're in good shape. Tyres also look like Tioga Wonder Dawgs, which again are worth a bit. Maybe it's worth asking on here if anybody can collect for you and send on? I would be happy to but I'm in the smoke as well :)

Don't you mean a 'Bontrageur'?
