Okay, I suspect there won't be many, but I'd love to see some photos of mountain bikes with horizontal top tubes...
Don't ask... 😯
Fresh from 1989....

Not an MTB I know, but there we go.

Nice!
I wasn't expecting to see so many so soon...
Do you have a photo of the P20 directly from the side, RitcheyP20?
Any better? You may have to tilt your screen to level it

Thanks - that's great. Those Ritchey bikes are lovely.
Just curious - has anyone bought, or had custom-made, something like that in recent years? I have an image of a bike in my head. I think it has skinny steel tubes, raked forks, 29er wheels, and maybe a longer head-tube. Perhaps it's based on old bikes from the beginning of the MTB era, but I can't recall what they were - maybe Peugeot or Muddy Fox? Of course it would probably be hopelessly impractical and a death trap.
I rode strathpuffer on a singular peregrine with flat bars.
That ticks all your criteria i think?
