Yeah, some sort of Kili Thing from early 90s. When loads of manufacturers jumped on the E-stay bandwagon (then gave up 'cos E-stays are a bit shit really). Possibly Tange Custom DB or even Prestige. Doesn't look like that ones been loved much, judging by that Tourney rear mech. 🙁

I haven't seen one of those for a long time.
You should get a Trimble next.

Found it... wonder if it's worth £100 in today's money?

You're one to talk, with that stupid heavy rubbish bike you've got what you can't even ride properly! 😉

I'd quite like one of these Kirk magnesium frames, though I dare say I'd snap it pretty quickly!

I remember riding a Kirk back in the day. It rode like a breezeblock 😆

I had one of those Killi Racers, ebay'd it a few years ago, heavy and harsh, I'm sure just the frame was something like 6 1/2 lb, had a Flexstem on it too and took it off-road just to remind myself what it was like, only did about 8 miles and still felt the pain a few days after that 😯
