For ten years now this poor neglected bike has lurked in the shadows of our garage un-used and un-loved, it was purchased by my wife in 1999 (I think 
) and has been used approximately ........once 
Whoever sold it to her was clearly not of the off road fraternity because it is a 19" frame with a 125mm stem (long enough for a chimp
, or myself 
) so consequently it has never been used.
I did have it on the Turbo in the garage for a winter two years ago but it has never been used off road and has never felt the grass beneath its hoops, the poor thing has never been shown a canal tow path even or a bridle way to charge down.........
.......Anyway as such the bike is nearly shop condition the drive train has had 150 indoor miles on it and I used a Swalbe city jet tyre so the tyres are like new as well, the only marks on the ASBO metallic yellow frame are from storage and can be seen in the last picture on the seat stay and seat tube near the front mech.
The vitals are as follows:-
Specialized A1 Aluminum Direct drive frame
Rockshox Indy S Forks in like new condition
STX hubs on Araya rims
Specialized strong arm Chainset
Specialized V-Brakes
7 Speed - STX Shifters and rear Mech, Alivio Front Mech
Specialized Finishing Kit
........And not forgetting the essential Onza Ski Bend Bar-ends
I'm looking for sensible offers of around £200...I know this is about £20 for every year it's been around but this is a like new bike which cost £450 when new. I will be putting it on Fleabay when I get back from the Fort if there are no takers on this Retro beauty.
