XL Spooky Darkside 26" frame. I purchased this from Mickey at Spooky Cycles early last year, but it's sat in the shed unbuilt and if I'm being honest with myself it's not going to be anytime soon either.
I lusted after one of these in 1997, and finally got around to buying one in 2010. Excerpts from reviews include "if singletrack is heaven then the Darkside is god", "body of a jetfighter and the soul of a junkyard dog", "climbs like a homesick angel".
Black anodised, complete with a full sticker set which has never been applied (sat in a drawer in the house somewhere). I'll even throw in a matching Spooky t-shirt.
Largely Easton Elite, with custom-spec stays. Weight was quoted as ~3lbs, I've never put it on the scales to confirm.
To give you some idea, they look like this built up:
Retrobike
Luxe Wheelworks
Cost me about £700 to import. Asking £400 plus postage. I have a set of Chris King disc hubs (just serviced by Evolution) on DT5.1 rims (cosmetically a bit tatty but functionally fine) that you can have for another £200.
