I have ALWAYS wanted one of those old twangy Explosifs. The kind of flex that’s illegal now…bring it back

Haha, if it had 29in wheels, through axles, disc brakes and (say) a 120mm fork it might need to be a touch less noodly than the old ones.

Th "A".  The full suss with a pivot aound the BB so you could single speed it without a tensioner.  Classic.  Though probably not currently a viable product line!

Coming from the 90s, I’d like them to reissue all their old mtb range, with similar colours, but as gravel bikes. I’d love a lava dome gravel bike in the 92 paint job
