unless you mean the 1993 Vit-t??
i remember seeing one of those in the shop where i was buying a brand new clockwork and thinking it looked great even then. but no i was thinking of the '08 model.

My LBS,Cycleworld is the only Orange dealer in Scotland from Edinburgh up, he didn't get any and shifts a pile of Oranges, rare as rocking horse poo.IMO (mind) are there not better ti hardtails for 3.5k?

Wheelspin still have them-here
now that's just made me suspicious - why would they still have them some 2 years after they were released.
are they not 3.5k good enough?

When people buy Ti I think they want people to see a "Litespeed" or a "Merlin" type sticker on it. If Halfords made a perfectly good Ti frame that cost the going rate but with "Halfords" stickers I doubt it would sell.

Pretty sure Wheelspin still has one in stock, not sure on the size though.

Quite few places (even Orange) reduced the Vit-T. I saw them go for around £2800. so stock advertised at full wallop looks pricey. Great spec though.
As for the name aspect, the sticker on the Seat tube that says Lynskey is a bit more familiar

Afraid they are all gone! and I have one. it is a thing of pure joy and gets ridden 3 times a week all year round and looks as good as the day I picked it up.
