Well, it has been quiet after the pictures? :?

'Cos we're all nomplussed! The colour scheme and transfers appear to go together (as in, it's not an obvious halfords apollo with specialized transfers type thang) , but it's nowt I've ever seen before!!

Mr L G Fromage's premise is an interesting one........

 

[Lysander]

Nope, noting to see here......

I know!! They look like the ones from a Funk Pro Comp. Like the one from Felixdelrio (http://www.retrobike.co.uk/?p=286)

pretty sure there was someone asking about similar old K2 frames on the ID Riders site if you want to have a look...

Yep, I've been there allready, thanks! There was a similar question about a K2 Comp 71 Ultralight. Looks like mine, but mine has a full XT-kit on it!

The framenumber from mine is 9011000. So I guess it's from 1990?!?

no way that looks like it has nothing to do with the offroad toad or proflex's

maybe k2 had tried in the mtb arena bowed out and bought up proflex later to get into that market without having to design their own product?

[offroad toad is nothing to do with offroad either ]
