Well if so you'll remember these. I remember a lad I used to go riding with having a brand new one around 1997 and remember just how legendary these are. I want one so bad!!!

This is a cool site BTW if you're into your bikes.

Yeah it was, just forget the exact size now. I built it over about 10 months, cost around 1k in the end, worst thing I ever did was give up riding.

Too right. I built up a bare metal Condor frame with Primo and T1 parts. Prob cost me around the same but when I started driving I lost interest. Its in the shed now all lonely
