I already have a very early 2021 tubing set with a very early Deore groupset. For most of my life, I've used racing bikes but the roads down here in Nottingham are so potholed it has forced me to move over to MTB for comfort reasons. I have lots of bikes & will end up keeping my mtb.
Anyone interested in a ram like this... but its been resprayed at some point in time looking for £100

£500 is a good for a clean old bike like that ... But it all comes down too what someone will pay for it unfortunately.
I mean I've just sold a Raleigh 753 time trial special frame with low SB serial number 1979 model on eBay only made £281 free postage.
But I wish you look chap.
