Where it all begon,..

[Defiant]

I had to clean up the storage and found a picture of my first MTB,..

I think it must have been,.. early 90's
It was a Scott Pro only

What i remember of the bike was that it had a radial front wheel,...
And at some point i was standing in front of my skool,..and out of nothing,..the hub broke, 1 side just got fired away and i found the piece meter's from where i was standing,...and my wheel bend itself as i was watching it,....

It was LX/XT build up,..and had a straight fork, and was kinda nice...

after the hub broke,..it was replaced by a "normal" spoked wheel

Not as posh as that - I had a KHS, can't remember the model (a Summit maybe, came with Exage mechs), and I loved it, wish I still had it. Any going on here? Are they even still in business?
