1993 Gt Tequesta

[chrisv40]

This was very kindly given to me last week by Alastair Carlton off here, he had had the bike from new and wanted it to go to a good home and here it is.
It was looking a bit sorry for itself when I collected it but it was nearly all muck and dust and once polished looked lovely again.
New grips for the Brahma bars, new tyres and and a new seatpost after I'd removed the stuck one was all that was needed!

Pics from yesterdays family ride on the disused Hornsea railway track.

Tequesta was a great bike, even better when free.... The team scream colour was ace...

Re:

Yeah he's a very generous man

I've never had a team scream yet but I have the 96 Tequesta with the flame paintjob.

Re:
