and a Dave Yates for off-road, but not here, so no pic, though I may mangae to find one with a bit of searching ...

for completeness ...

My elder boy rides this:



and my youngest this:

Yes all 3 mountain bikes are for sale.

The Red one - Top Fuel 110 is originally £4000. I am willing to let it go for £2000ish
The Balck one which is actually raw OCLV Carbon is a 4" travel Fuel EX 9.5. Thi sis an absolutely superb all day real Mountain Bike. This is originally £3600 I can sell for £1800ish
The Blue one at the bottom is one of my all time favourites and origianlly cost £3400. It is probably the lightest but only just lighter than the red one. I have upgraded the forks to Fox Terra logics which only work when they hit a bump as opposed to working all the time and hence bobbing. I am selling this for around £1400.

I also have a road bike that I am probably going to sell. I shall post a picture of that up if any one would like one. I actually dont have a picture so would have to go out in my dressing gown right now, sop think I'll wait to see if there is any demand for that one. Yes its a Trek too before anyone asks. Its a 1400 with mudguards from a few years ago, running 9 speed 105.

So how much would you look to sell your Trek 1400 just out of interest?

[Crippo]

1400 could go for £500.

Sorry but I cant get any "old" OCLV hardtails. They only make the new 110 OCLV now. I dont know if you could pick one up from Ebay. In fact I think I saw one on there the other day. It was a Blue and Silver one.

Here's mine:

Only just started this MTB lark, so it's not quite as flashy as most on here. Mainly used for trail riding with a bit of down hill

[Mr E]

Moose, that's a really nice GT hardtail mate. I like it.

Yeah I saw that 9.8 - they go for stellar money still.

But I'm after the original OCLV hardtails, as they were the lightest of all

Here's mine - '95 Gary Fisher Aquila, currently doing service as a beater road bike. Old-skool cro-mo frame, originally had solid forks but now sporting RSTs of indeterminate vintage. No maintenance in 10 years except the odd squirt of GT-85...

Ooh a bike forum

I had to sell my bikes to pay for car bits and didn't get any more as I fell ill. However, when I'm better I'll be building up what I've hankered after for a while.
