No pics yet, waiting for a new camera lead!! Its an expense alloy frame, with redline forks, sky pilot headset and profile 180mm cranks, I gotta get wheels, tyres, brake blocks for the shimano brakes and a chain ring!! :daumenhoch:

Cheers Paul, what levers would suit it? The brake is a shimano XT!
The forks are drilled and no vee mounts, what calipers are best for the front?

i wouldnt fit a front one mate is it going to be a rider and what year is the frame ? the deaore would be fine mate and looks new its a right one and i use left the other lever isnt as good nick but was a great lever .alans do new dx i think they are about £15 ? you can have the new deore for £3 posted ill throw in the blocks free are the back brakes v-type or canterlevers ? and do the blocks bolt on or slide in ? thew  :daumenhoch:

mr ratty
-dear lord, I forgot to tell you about the pun -intense ional

-the frame isn't an expense, its an intense -bad joke i know

-yes - sorry, i am indeed a sign maker ,and it was a joke -completely forgot to tell you

-its actally a xxl intense sniper, though as mongoose already patened the sniper name, they changed it to sabot

-so its a intense sabot xxl - rrp 250 -in the sale

-its a couple of years old
-the forks were new last year

have you ridden it yet/

anyway, rest assured that its one of the best race frame available
a veritable jmc/hutch/ of today

-definately no --shite

-it was originally silver
