This is actually quality, and deserves to be posted up here in full (for those what don’t have access to ebay):
Raleigh Max Ogre fully rigid proper old skool steel mountain bike. This isn’t any of your aluminum full suspension nonsense, this is a bike from the days when men were men. This bike will go with nearly any moustache.
Tyres have air in, wheels rotate through full 360 degrees, clockwise and anti-clockwise. Brakes work ok, this bike doesn’t have the old caliper brakes as per pink girls plastic wheeled bikes, it is fitted with cantilever brakes (front and rear), this means it already has mounting pegs for state-of-the-art V-brakes, I wouldn’t have thought you would need to upgrade the brakes however as even seemingly unpassable obstacles such as houses/trees will actually dive out of the way to avoid you when they see coming on this incredible piece of kit (yes kit), such will be your awesome presence.
Gears don’t currently work, levers may have broken off of handlebars, actually that’s a lie, for the levers to have broken off that would imply weakness, this bike decided it didn’t want levers anymore. Chain does what it is supposed to, you rotate the cranks, chain turns the rear wheel (rear wheel drive) and the back wheel rotates the earth beneath you. This bike doesn’t bunny hop, the world shifts out of its way!
To prove to you how good this bike is I will include a copy of the Jan 2012 copy of What Mountain Bike, there are bikes in there for £5000 etc, they don’t have the Raleigh Max Ogre though, should be called Not Mountain Bike magazine.
I tried to start bidding at the price I think this bike is worth (I say bike, you are actually buying a lifestyle choice). However having held done the zero button for 4 hours it has now broken.
Any questions please ask.
