hey i'm tempted with your frame, does it have a fork? could i see the pics of the frame if possible?are u sure that it is 99? coz i found an archive in orange.co.uk but there was no gringo line up in year 99 particularly.. is it alu or CR-MO?
does it look like this? btw how's the paintjob? does it need repainting?

p.s i might be interested in bits u have, what u got?
I can include an RST 461 fork if thats of use for an extra £20 but it needs a service and a good clean. It was identified as a 99 by the guys on retrobikes and they know their stuff. I think the gringo came out in 99 in the blue my frame is in and that was the only year they did the colour. The paint has some scratches and chips but i dont feel it needs a respray as yet. The frame is Aluminium and is a cracking ride.
The frame and forks are the on in the picture in the link below. I have some cranks, a stem and some brake levers i can chuck in for an additional £15 (£105 + postage for all the bits).
