See now that’s the kind of encouragement I feed off and end up buying silly cars and bikes I can’t afford :) waiting for the dream.

Sadly I have since found out that the bike is actually a 20" and too big for me. The search continues! Just like I do with everything however I will become completely obsessed with this and end up spending a shed load on something I set out to spend £150 on.

Re: I’m considering a pinky purple Ricochet, has Rockshox forks. From what I can tell after hours of reading, it’s probably a 1995 model. Does anyone know more than this? It has not been modified or painted so I’m confident of the model and colour.

Appreciate the offer, thank you. I will keep looking for now as I’m becoming a bit obsessed with finding a Zaskar or similar now. Also considering a Ricochet.

Really helpful that, thank you. A 1996 Zazkar LE silver with Yellow forks. What are the thoughts on that? Worth going for or hood out for an earlier model? It is suspension so would probably change the forks if I went for it.

Re: Re: It's funny you say that, I do know one of the guys who runs Bristol Bike Project. I will chat to him about this also, lock down has closed the place for a long tome now though.

Nice bike, I will follow your project if you are posting on here. What do you think of Tequesta and Tempest?

Re: So this would not be one?

Re: Thanks for the frame offer, I think what I am really after though is a coloured frame, would seam a shame to paint it right? What size frame is it? Also in Bristol so would not be able to pick up. The Avalanche, a good frame? Although already I am starting to fall from that brushed silver...

Hello all, Looking for some advice on GT's - Like many I am starting to miss my GT that was stolen in 1996 when I was 16 - I can't remember the model but was purple and a GT, and I rode the heck out of it as any teenager would. That's all I have on this bike. So now I am looking to pick up an...

Re: Ok, what I should have said was that the picture "looks" exactly the same as my rockhopper. Was hoping that would be enough to identify what I have. After more research I think I have a H2. Does anyone know much about that? The info I need really is if it's worth me spending £165 pounds...

Re: I tried to load a pic of the actual bike but the file was too large. The bike is miles away so cannot get a new pic up yet unfortunately.

Hello all. I'm returning to the bike world after 15years as I have just been given an old rockhopper. Does anyone know what year my "new" bike is and how much it would have sold for new? It is going to cost me the best part of £160 to get back up and wheeling so also would appreciate some...
