Might be worth tapping tintin up. I think he had a few of these at some point in the past and might have a spare?

Perfect purchase, cheers dude! I ballsed up on eBay not realising collection only, but he happily posted to me, and very nicely packed things were too, and exactly as described. Highly recommend from me!

A bit of info on head tubes. It's not the case that until 94 all were 1". I've had a few M2 Teams, all built 90,91,92 and the head tubes varied. My assumption given experience is that if the frames were supplied with an FS fork they had 1-1/8" head tube, and if they were supplied with rigid DD...

Shoot me some pics of the wtb jersey please dude.

Think you've got your bar ends on the wrong way round...

99 problems and a decent photo ain't one. I reckon perhaps something like a 93 Dawes kickback but they had forward facing post clamps. Not sure what they were like in 92 - if they were rear facing then that's my bet. Lugs and routing and dropouts and all other bits seem to tally.

I've got some marzocchi forks in red here?

@RobbieA They're not Mojos. Maybe tektro or vanguard or similar, but defo not the Ringlé originals.

Oh that's tempting...

2008. I kid you not: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/hugi-front-hub-wheel-yellow-rear-hs33.42822/

Unbelievable. I spent 10 years searching for a front hub like that to match my rear. Gave up in the end and sold the rear wheel with regret. Then I see this.

Oh dear. I've created a monster. Quick Al, change your number again! 😂
