Always remember a neighbour having one when I was 14-15 and that had thumbshifters, not a fam of Sti

Re:

Brilliant, brilliant bikes!

I had one, ran a 410cm A/C tripple butted P2 which slowed down the twitchiness of the e-stay frame and the standard fork was utter s***e

Won retro pairs on it at the Brighton Big Dog a few years back with Bryan. Belting bike. I sold it to Oldfellatn3

The frames were from Reynolds 531 Magnum and built by Saracen (it's on the dropouts).

Black XT chainset and black cantilevers to boot personally I don't think you did too bad.

Re:

Slap some thumbies on if that's what you are missing. £80 seems a steal really with what it is already loaded with. Isn't it a 531 frame and forks as well?

Re:

That’s the plan, have a spare set of dx Thumbshifters, will see it properly tonight.

531 "Magnum" (for added weight). I doubt the forks were 531, they were terrible!

I got my f&f from CTK who bought the bike and stripped the XT group from it.
