Saracen Conquest Gate!!

That’ll clean up well enough I’m sure. All looks original except the grips maybe.
Here’s your challenge for the weekend...

I wasn’t sure about the Brooks at first - hated the squeaking but a little bit of wd40 every so often does the trick. Now I love it, nice and comfy. Most of my riding is on hard stuff hence the city jets.
 
Ha ha weekend challenge, thats in super clean condition ,id have to get rid of the city jets though,
 
In mint condition maybe 90 pounds,thing is i do not like breaking bikes,its an easy way to make money,but rarely does the bike return to originality once broken,so ill clean her up and imagine riding up Kilimanjaro

I'm in agreement with you on this one.

I reckon there's a really nice bike hidden underneath all that crap.

I was merely trying to put into perspective what a really good buy it was.
 
Seat post is free so thats a bonus.Do any of you early Saracen owners know where the frame number is situated,ive searched all over the frame and cannot find it.
 
A bit of cleaning and its not too bad.The frame paint is shot and so is the handlebar chrome,any suggestions?.But the components
mainly shimano m700,have come up a treat. 003.JPG
