Virtually New 1998 Klein Mantra Race (Koi)

[marin man]

A bit too bling for my liking Only kidding it looks awesome (I have some spins also)

That is the tits! I see you share my obsession with matching the saddle to the grips!

Love these mantras and this is a particularly good one well done old boy! As for spins being marmite personally I love 'em!!!

Thanks for the kind words chaps... Glad theres enough bling on their for some of you ...

Got to say the bike feels fantastic to ride and looking forward to putting some decent miles on it

another classic!

My cranks are radder than yours tho

 

[Alex Creasey]

Not bad.

This looks great , I would have gone for plain black tyres

I got a Klein Mantra Race new in 1998, it was brilliant....

Cost new £2200 in 1998.
Replacement rear shock £250 in 1999.
Realising you've just sold your favourite bike ever (2004) £priceless

Wow. So much to look at and it all looks so exotic. The onlt things I'd change is a M952 rear mech and get rid of those ghastly thumb shifters.

Awesome mountianbike.

My goodness that looks totally amazing, the best looking bike I have seen for some time the quality and detail of the components are second to none. The only thing am not sure on are the forks but the colors are great, very refreshing.
