Me and my bike in 1991 & new bad pics

[DeletedUser006]

Went round my parents house and discovered some pics of me and my bike in 1991, Bike looks good even by todays standards

Its a 1990 Lava Dome, My fav bike I have ever owned, I had it from new and upgraded all the Suntour X1 groupset and changed to DX even hubs :roll: I loved the DX black crank arms (would kill for these now) The other thing that I remember looking at the picture were the scott AT3 bars - loved them and the tyres were Tioga Trail Dawgs

Sadly this bike got pinched shortly after I had it refinished at Argos in 1993

I will add some more pics to this as I have some more of me and my brother that I will add, They are particularly 1990 and slightly bad taste (clothing)
