mamadirt thanks for your help.
guitarhero your bike is just stunning!!!

Mamadirt you were spot on..ma old gal was a 96 model..
Much loved and never should have sold her.....well maybe for a klein..lol

🙂 LOL not yet, when the Formula R1's are fitted and the Duraace 12-27 cassette go on ....who knows
I think the latest 575 Yeti has the looks unfortunately i dont like the ride.
i bet on and ons is a great climber, that is surely not an endurance bike though, how long is it comfortable mate?
Loving the [b]Klein[/b] and the [b]Fat Chance[/b].
I had a black Klein Pinnacle that was very purdy, in an understated way (for a Klein), but my absolute favourite, I think because of the colour, was an old Rockhopper Comp frame, that I had in about '92, in a beautiful mid to light blue colour, with some black Tange prestige forks.
As a bike it was nothing out of the ordinary, but it was a colour that I don't think was readily available in the UK (it was a random offering as a frame from Specialized from the States). I must look up their archive pages.
Around that time I also had a loan of a Joe Breeze Breezer that had the kind of coachworking you normally see on... coaches? Dunno - but it was dark blue and white and beautifully finished.
Then again, I do like my current FS - the Superlight - especially with the new bars and grips that went on it today... I know the curvy frame isn't to everyone's taste, but it's engineering done well, as far as I can tell.

2 Choices:
Mat Chester Utilitiman Ti singlespeed, black P2 forks, Thomson, Jones H-bars, Paul V-brakes and levers with Nokon cables. DT/Surly singlespeed wheelset and beefy Conti Tyres. Black and Ti, minimal and lovely (now with new owner in the US)
My current OS Bikes BlackBuck, lovely swoopy steel frame in black with silver rear and red pin-striping. Smatering of WTB parts and Avid discs.
SSP
The day my Cotic Soul frame was delivered, I took it out of the box and my wife just said "I wish you'd look at me like that!"
Though my Blur was a real car park bike - handy, as I ride much better in car parks than on trails. The LBS had it in for some work one day and apparently everyone who'd seen it in the workshop was asking about it. (Sadly, none of them were around when I had to sell her!)

I did 40ish miles on it last Sunday with no problems (60% road 40% XC)
the pork-rind grips need changing though as I'm getting nub hands.
its climbs like a monkey on speed ,downs are.......adrenaline fuelled 🙂
My mate has one of these - full on xtr kit

Loving that Syndicate 4x 😀
My old Socom will always probably be number one purely down to rarity (and coolness!) of the finish it was supplied with:

Thats a tidy rig that gemini with the dorados...

OMITN, bar tape is the Charge leatherette stuff. I had some Brooks but it discolours pretty easily and feels very thin compared to cork tape.

full of Orangy goodness!
I feel your pain Rudeboy. Some total chunt nicked my best looking bike too. A 95 Zaskar LE in ano black with silver RC30s, ATAC stem, Hyperlites, Ringle Moby Post and hubs (all in silver) laced to M321 Ceramics, full first gen XTR with Tioga Revolver cranks. She was beautiful, and the worst thing was I'd stripped, serviced and polished her that night. I was pissed off for two years over that...
Must let it go really!
someone, other than Rudeboy, must have had a nice looking bike at some point surely?
A Pace RC200 back in 1996 it had ringle green trick bits xt group set and green wildgripper tyres. I wish I hadn't sold it.
There truly are some gopping bikes appearing on this thread
