I had an Attitude when I was younger and loved it. It got pushed on for something more bouncy.
Many years passed and I stumbled across this site. It pushed me into a bidding frenzy on the bay and ended up with another Attitude (check the gallery) which went through many guises until I was very content with Campagnolo throughout.
In June, I took the Attitude for a trip into the big smoke to visit the bank and it disappeared with a new owner (thieving gets). Looking for a bike in Beijing is the needle in a haystack many times over!
It just so happened that the day before the Attitude went I had expressed interest in a Pinnacle frame from HarryBurgundy. I never meant for this to be built quite so quick but with the other one gone an empty frame wasn't filling the space.
So 6 months later and a bit of excess baggage allowance and the Pinnacle is more or less complete. Many years ago a friend had a Raleigh Team Dyna Tech with XC Pro and always loved it. He even passed on the brake levers from that bike!?
The forks are awaiting new elastomers.
The bike gets used to to go to the shops, take the dog out or go to work but unlike many of the hardcore on here I see the advantage of the design improvements on modern mountain bikes. So will use something more modern in the hills.
Thanks to the many people that have helped out with this including
the competent fellas at Cyclopeadia Cardiff (plug plug)
