1992 Nevil Devil

[FirstFlight]

Fairly rare Nevil Devil. Sure would like to know some more history of these frames. We have scanned one brochure @ http://mombat.org/MOMBAT/BikeHistoryPages/Nevil.html but that is all we have.

More pictures and details of this bike @ http://mombat.org/MOMBAT/Bikes/1992_Nevil_Devil.html

Had a line on one but it didn't work out!

Didn't those have a reputation for breaking, or was that just the Aermet tubed versions?

I'd love to get the straight story, lots of second hand accounts out there that seem to get repeated regularly. I think most of the AerMet frames made cracked no matter who built them?

Mine did, but it isn't a Nevil.

It wasn't just the Aermet ones that had that reputation, but I've always wanted one, regardless. I guess that's kind of how people feel about old yeti's. Not comparing the two...just saying.

I haven't posted on this side of the pond in quite a while...

was going to start a new thread, but it seemed like a good idea to keep the Nevils together.
