I bought a '97 Mount Vision a few months ago, silver with the original style trailing arm.
It must be one of the lightest mtbs I've used and climbs like a dream. A real joy to own and it's fairly clocking up the miles
I think the original Manitou Bulge front forks have seen better days though, despite a service they seem a bit lifeless. Might be upgrading those one day.
When I bought it the bike had the original tyres! It has the original XT 8 speed groupset with V brakes and it all works beautifully. You can keep your modern bikes, I like this one too much!
I want to polish the whole bare aluminium frame to a mirror finish, but I also want to use the bike and enjoy it. Such a dilema.......
