69

Picked her up today from P & H so now most of my winter project is completed. After looking for 620 bit's for the last Two weeks and having no luck the 69 bike just kept looking beter value. Tomorrow we strip it down and make a list

I reckon its a very decent price, a steal I'd say.

They had a road 620 in there today, 5k with some winter riding on it for £3500. The race one came with all the road kit
and is mint in comparison. they said they got it out the crate ran it in and raced it last year. fingers crossed it's a good un
plan to get it on a Dino and see what we need to do from there Suspensions all still standard so will be getting that sorted first.

I find it's the best way to get to know a new one

Strip her down first, have a good look at her, make
sure she's ready then jump on and ride her as fast as possible.

Eric, don't rise to Nick's baiting. Just because his spelling is better than yours, doesn't mean he'll be faster out of the corners. In fact, it is a well known fact that spelling holds you back in life.

Ask anyone. (other than teachers, and librarians, and anyone remotely academic, ... in fact, don't ask anyone, just take my word for it
)
