Bought by myself back in 1992 it had infrequent use then was stored in a cupboard since. The Pump system works perfectly with no leaks. Due to the age I wouldn't recommend using it for protection, it's more as a collectable item. Condition is decent for its age, the shell is starting to come...

Finally got round to buying a scanner after giving my last one away (long story). Here's the first of a load of scans I'll be doing: http://www.expure.com/bikes/scans/pace_portfolio1.jpg http://www.expure.com/bikes/scans/pace_portfolio2.jpg...

Possibly the best set available outset Chez Herbold! ;) These are my own. I doubt I'll ever use them so I'm hoping someone else will buy them and also not make use of them. That way I can spend the money on rubbish that won't appreciate nearly as much as these babies. Hang on, I'm talking...

Just a heads up for you guys. I'm sure most of you avoid MBUK these days, but it's prob worth the £4 next month as there is a free DVD of "Dirt", the MTB flick from the mid 90s. It's billed as bonus material to the main free "Flow" DVD so I doubt it'll have the original JMC cover to grab...

I have no idea where this pic came from, found it on my hard drive a while back.

Trying to compile a list of non-white tyres: Onza - Porcupine - White Tioga - Psycho K - Amber and Grey Specialized - Various - Umma Gumma (grey) and Red Ritchey - Z-Max - Red and Grey Panaracer - Smoke & Dart - Amber and Sand (white) Michelin -Wildgripper - Green and Amber Michelin -...

Excessive capitalisation, commas before "and". I don't know... ;)

Scan from Velonews' "Superbikes" mag, 1993. In case anyone doesn't know the story, Juli was a pro XC rider and only entered the DH for fun. Instead of riding a bike she's been dialling in all season she rode this RTS one which had been delivered to her 3 days beforehand. She'd rode the bike...

Yes really! The last thing you'd expect to find in the school library was these two Fats hiding in the pages of "Richard's Ultimate Bicycle Book" (Dorling Kindersley, 1992) http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASI ... 06-5703841 This 1990 Yo! is the same 2.5" shod bike as the review...

I don't recognise him. Could just be a very keen privateer?

As mentioned in the Saracen 98-90 topic, here's the 1991 "Conquest Competition Hydrotech". Catchy name. I think they wee going for a Pace type feel with the sqare tubing and brakes. This crazy machine retailed for £1250 in '91. Note the XT thumbys.

Green on one side... Nice snowflake btw. Blue on the other!

I loved these MBUK specials, sure they were expensive, but you got a Mint Sauce freebie (the socks were cool) and some awesome bikes to drool over, like the fattest of the Fat: Another one, from MBA, December 1992. Same shot as the '92 Fat cat, but not so cropped.

Check out the drilled cranks!

Didn't take off at the time but curiously 24" wheels are becoming pretty popular theese days with the freeride and dirt jumpers. The MTB/BMX fusion is starting to happen, 15 years after Mongoose saw it's potential!

Finally got round to dusting off my scanner and my old PC (won't work with my Mac) so expect some regular stuff. I've got heaps of stuff from '89-'94, mags, brochures etc (I never throw anything out!) This is from Bicycling mag, February 1993. I bought the mag for this one pic. I'm guessing...

Couple of pics of my 1993 Saracen Race Elite. It's a strange beast, kind of a parts bin special using leftover 1992 Killi Racer frames with a mix of parts. Most of the groupset is cheapo Altus A20, but I got lucky with this one as it had Deore LX front mech and hubs - the 17" next to it in the...

In October 1993 I did work experience at a bike shop in Stoke and was given a pair of White Porcupines as a thank you. Retail at the time was £15 each. I fitted them to my bike, took some photos and then removed them. After hanging in my parents garage for twelve years I've dusted them off...
