That £30 Saracen Trekker at York Rally

Yup, I bought it 😎

Couldn't resist it at £30, my first proper mountain bike was the earlier double U braked trekker, I've still got it, but it's now painted in a lovely black hammerite and is only a frame, forks & brakes.

Yes, it's a bit rough, but it's got the original crackset, chainrings, wheels, seatpost, maybe the stem, and most importantly, the rear U brake. Also came with a pair of Saracen branded 'bars, although I'm not sure if they are original as they almost look brand new!

I've dug out a pair of SS7's, 7 speed thumbies, I believe I've still got my original Saracen sprung saddle and definitely got my old black stem with Skate Muties stickers on.
Found my old IRC Geo-Claws that I ran on my original Trekker BITD, so they can go on too.

It's on the back burner at the as I'm building up a Dawes Sardar at the moment, but, it's on the list.
