...and yes I am asheamed about the state I've let my beloved Cassandra get into, and yes, she will be sorted properly in the near future...but she'll need some gears cos SS is, and let me be frank here, fricking terrible on me knees
obviously the Stinky is not steel, and the CinderCone is the steel one, doh!

I still haven't even ridden it 😳
That's a good vintage Ally. 2000-ish?
Not steel, and not so old, 1996 I think. Recently built up after hanging on the wall for a few years...

02 Stinky, like Lister's though he got his first.

Oh and not steel, though it feels heavy enough to be made from old scaffolding poles.
Dudu...

My '95 Kilauea which has been repainted twice, rewelded (RH dropout broke as per most of them of that year). It's currently unbuilt but I'll shortly be building it up again for putting a child seat on and riding to work some days.
If anyone has a spare Judy XC steerer/crown assembly I'd be interested! (or even a complete era fork if you've got one)

takisawa, Mat's right - it's an AA.
I've an 89 Cindercone (tange steel, Joe Murray splatter paint job) that's got the original Mountain LX groupset on it, bar the front shifter which disintegrated recently.
I'll try and get a pic shortly.

(can't get pic to work)
but it's a '94 Lavadome that's been on here (or the old place) before in various different guises - sometimes rigid, sometimes SS - currently geared with an R7 fork.

Just fitted those IRC Notos - everyone seems to hate them but I'm getting on with them quite well, so far.
