I remember when the Kirk frames were shown on Tomorrow's World... the first bike frames to be made out of seaweed!

And now I have one in the shed...

Ah the Colella tandem, victim of many a broken relationship. IIRC it has been owned by Guy Kesteven, Jo Burt and possibly even Chipps?

I raced on the back of it in 2003 at a Simba event in Dalby, as a substitute stoker. Barrel of laughs!

I made a SS XT shadow mech and super acute angle LG1 chaindevice for Rowan to run at the 2008 World Championship DH at Fort Bill in 2008. They are in the 2009 Orange catalogue pic from that race and I still have both of them in my posession. I inscribed KM1 on the mech as The only other ridrs running ss shadow mechs were Gee, Dan and Rachel Atherton on Prototypes of the Saint.
Rowan told me they asked him where he got his mech from.
And ironically, it came from the mechanic they inerviewed the day they were late for the 1.04 with Dirt mag.
The chain device spawned the new LG1 with adjustment on the lower arm after consulting with Jonas from E13 at core in 2008.
These are the original prototypes that were raced and adopted in different forms with evidence to back it up.
Pretty unique I think, and with provenance.

The yates bike alluded to by mistake earlier in the thread was the Dave yates "donkeysknob" and that was refering to the geometry i believe.

I'll get my coat and sod off to retro bike.

This must be pretty rare, it's my old tri bike, with 650c wheels.

I have a raleigh titanium mountainbike. Fully welded frame, painted blue with disc brake mounts. I have never even seen a picture of one the same as its different from most of the dynatech frames
