RetroMTB Ride Hull & Bygone Byke Jumble Aftermath

[FluffyChicken]

looks like i missed a muddy one!

really want to meet up with you all again, its been nearly a year i think. really appreciate the invites chris and ben and feel really bad having to say no all the time

Don't worry, we'll keep inviting you and one day you never know

Oh it was definately a muddy one, took everything out of me and really showed me just how out of shape i am (not good) but thoroughly enjoyed it and dont actually feel as sore and tired as i thought i would today


And rather pleased with my Klein shaped acquistion form the bike jumble

I thought you did very well indeed John, you just need to keep at it now so get yourself out on a Sunday with Ben and me

I had a look for that Klein last night and I reckon it has to be pre 89. The 1989 had a U brak but I can't find one with your colour scheme.

All here, but the Klein fans might know more about it even though it's not the high end ones.

I had a nosey on google last night, and from what i found i would guess it to be a 1990, the 1991 has canti's and the same decals, the 90 has the U-brake, ill have a sniff at the link Ben put up in a few mins, definately want to get back out in the saddle, as much as i suffered yesterday i really enjoyed it, need to strip my bb down though as it was making some terminal sounding noises late on into the ride :roll:

It must be '89 with the u-brake I think. Is not the sovereign blue colour scheme that was the second option is it? So more likely a later repaint? Haha, I can't remember now whether it was a metallic colour or also had a fade.

I don't know why I'm trying to help, I know nothing about Kleins.

Lol, i dont know much about Kleins either, it was pretty so i bought it lol

Well i aint gonna lie, it jumped out at me, thats pretty much the way ive been buying all my bikes and bits so far, i look through (usually the bay) something will stand out like a sore thumb, and when it does i do my best to get it
