Ltd Edition Orange???

Just got this on ebay locally and I'm guessing its an Aluminuim 'O' due to the stays??? I've never seen one in this ano colour scheme....I havent picked it up yet....any idea of year anyone?

The fork needs a bit more travel

Re:

Certainly could be a 'O' looking at it although the colour is not original and most of the decals are not period correct for the 'O'. From memory the 'O' was never offered in any kind of polished finish so maybe a home made job after the original notoriously fragile paint fell off?

Re:

Definitely a home made paint job by the looks of it. looks like some nice parts on there, it went for 79 quid didn't it, good project, hopefully frame has no cracks or probs, potentially a good buy. worth a punt!

Re:

Just collected this chaps...I can confirm no cracks or dents and someone has gone to a lot of trouble to spray the red/gold...even on the forks....good news also is that this paint comes off very easily
The wheels are very nice LX/Fir's in champagne and has Suntour XC Pro cantis, levers and shifters along with a nice stalk/hotrod bar upfront.
Bad news.....its too feckin small for me :-(

Also can you get the internals for these manitou 2/3??? They move up and down but no bounce!
