Felt like doing something nice.

Can't remember who, but someone said something about having one of these stolen once.

I didn't steal this one, but it is knackered.

I wouldn't ride it.

I wouldn't recommend anyone else did either.

Really just wondering if anyone wants it for nostalgia's sake.

First dibs already granted to whoever it was who said they had theirs stolen.

Hi,

I'm interested..

Just wondering why it's knackered?

 

[SwanHouseNappa]

It's knackered due to spectacular front impact about two weeks after it was supplied as a replacement for a Talera, which suffered exactly the same fate.

In exactly the same woods.

It belonged to a friend of mine, who somehow used to walk away from the most incredible accidents.
His first mountain bike ride was Skiddaw on a Townsend Mango Creek.

Top and down tube have tell-tale paint ripples and cracks. One of the seat stays has a dent that I think may have happened more recently.

Not a worthwhile welding project this one...

But it does have go faster hotrod flames.

 

[SwanHouseNappa]

Just want rid of it bump.

#2 on the paintjob! I have one of these in Blue/Black and they are very pretty. Too good for a skip.
