    New saddle? That looms like a Flite Ti. There’s not many better saddles than one of those, if it is!

    How much are these worth nowadays?
    My Dad has 1996 Lava Dome in his garage with all original kit on it, probably only done 200 miles since new.

    EDIT: Actually it might be a Cinder Cone, I’ll check next time I visit. He never uses it

    Lovely

    I was winning a bid for a lovely fire mountain from about 92 until, with a day of the auction left, the guy sold it :-(. Went for 200 quid in the end, mint condition. There was no buy it now option, so I was pretty peeved as had wanted one for ages.

    As for the saddle…don’t be getting rid of that!

    My Flites look like that after every wet ride. Rub in with some black scuffcoat shoe polish and it will soon spruce up. And wear black shorts.

    Lovely looking bike.
