I have the same bike with the same fork. 100% 2008 Mine is completely original. The Mavic rims are original and it came with Magura Louise hydraulic brakes. Mine hasn’t been used in a long time but is in excellent completely original condition.
I've seen different variants of the Rocky Ridge in black with different group sets. My 97 came with XT/LX, but this 98 came with lower STX/Avid gear. I've not seen a 1998 catalogue, only the 97 and 99, so I can only assume the 97 frame was built with lower spec components to sell off, rather than repaint the frame left in stock.
Works for a while then comes back
Ah ok, you probably have a fault that needs fixing.
Im pulling and its not comming off
Keep at it, it's pretty tough. Also watch your face, when it comes off it's fast
I have just bought a jekyll 3000 with max 130 aaand a complete xtr m950 set.It is like my childhood dream came true.
Ah man it's amazing, I totally get the feeling 😁👍
💪🙂👌
Hi , need your advice , Really like your channel , I want to change the forks on my Kona Lava Dome 1993. I want to change to forks with front pannier Frame 'holes' , currently I have the standard straight rigid gary fisher forks , the black ones . what should I be looking for on Ebay
Clearly hits the bike and not his head
Head!
@@TheRetroBiker No it's the right side of the front fairing and his right hand that hit's the bird, it's quite clear his head is no where near the bird.
Head, look 😁👍
@@TheRetroBiker My brother in christ, it is a known fact that the bird hits the bike, it is visible on your low quality vid, it is visible on the HD recordings from 9 years ago. I have seen it live, you can find the pictures with the damaged fairing as well.
@@heliogenesihead
LoL 😂😂😂
Worked amazingly, seemingly so after the 3 x 5 second part of the trick.
Gorgeous bike, such clean lines and I love the colour. I remember chatting bikes on the phone (landline!) to my mate when we were teenagers, and his mum overheard him say 'silver nipples' and then I heard him having to explain himself 😅
Hopefully you doesn't hurt your back😅 stay save and ride full force 😊👍
Hahaja
😂
Poor seagull
Definitely poor bird 😞
Is the fork a Tange Struts?
I'm not sure, I'll try and Google the 1997 brochure to see if there is any info....
@@TheRetroBiker Thanks, the bike is in really good shape.👍
Greetings from germany, Wow what a amazing bike. I the colour, great 90' Bike😊
Hello Patrick and danke! Do you get many of these Saracen over in Germany?
@@TheRetroBiker Oh no, the Saracen bikes are very rare. If there is one for sale, the price of these are very expensive.
that looks mint, I love the older Konas but this might be the best MTB you have picked up yet
Nice one thanks, looking forward to getting a few parts on it and seeing what you all think 🙂
Lovely find there,the geometry looks spot on. And Tange Prestige,probably my favourite Steel of choice for a retro Mountain bike
There really is something about it, I can't wait to get some trick parts on it and get it off road
Needs a Race Face Turbine LP chainset and XTR 8 speed. Love the Segmented forks and Ritchey dropouts. Decent frame.
If it was an all in money no object I'd go M950 but then some mint Avid Arch rival Vs. it's going to be a rider though so don't want to go too crazy on it. All the parts are in though, I just need time to fit them 🙂
Noice . A lad in Exeter has one , absolute stunner picked up for a few quid . Love those forks.
Thanks. Yeah the forks are awesome, one of the main things I associate with Kilis from back then. Won't be very comfortable off road though 🤣
Great video as always👍🏻 Need to get my Saracen done 🤔
Cheers dude, there's an old proflex waiting in the wings to do too
@@TheRetroBiker can't wait 😎
Nice bike. I’d love to get hold of one of these one day.
Oh they are out there, keep hunting 👍👍👍
Your 2 girls are the star of the show. They look like great fun
Ah thanks man, it's nice to get them involved 🙂
The retro stuntman! 👌
Maybe I need a stand in stuntman 🤣
@@TheRetroBiker I’m good at falling off my bike and I wear Casios, so perfect stunt double!😂
Another crazy bargain.
Thanks, proper dream bike this one
@@TheRetroBiker yeah tange prestige is pretty much the same as Reynolds 753, high quality stuff.
Flip flop trick shot 😂
It's definitely the correct footwear for trails right 👍

ianone keren 😂
Αχαχαχαχ κουτουλια 😂😂😂
Time to update the collection and the casios too!😄
That steeeeeem! I got a few old 150mm Tiogas in the parts bin😅 The XT rear derailleur might just need a good cleaning. I restored my Shimano 600 derailleur to crisp shifting doing that. I originally thought spring was sacked but it was fine after cleaning.
If the mech was in filthy dirty condition I'd hope a clean up would fix it but sadly it's really clean. Never know though, but of GT85 might get it going.
Another black LX for peanuts find! Nice. That P7 looks cool af too
Thanks, yeah the two combined should be epic 😁
My mate had one of those when we were 13 or 14 , 30 odd years ago now i was so jealous of him😂
What a cool bike for a young teen back then!!!!!!
@TheRetroBiker His family was loaded, I had some rusty old Raleigh 😂😂
Old bikes are like old cars; it makes me smile with pleasure when I see a nicely maintained or restored one in daily use.
It's much better than hiding them away never to be seen, much more enjoyable
Wow, i like the old 90' stuff. At the moment some 700c early crossbikes arrrived in my collection, like the alpinestars xross, stevens 7.6.2 and stevens 6.6.6.2. KHS are rare in germany, the Specialized rockhopper is pretty cool. I gott one of the year 2000 i gess. And one frame with fork with the Natrium frame 😊 Really amazing what really cool bikes for sale in England.😊👍 Greetings from germany
I like the old steel 700c bikes, I had a Marin Stinson a few years ago, put some nice light road kit on it and used it as a do everything gravel bike type thing 😁
The khs is a beauty and for just £30! 🙂
Really is, hopefully I can re-home the frame 👍
Its suxh a shame these bikes are getting parted out 🫤
Yeah it is I know. Think of it this way, the KHS is saving a bike that's been parted out though 🤔
@TheRetroBiker True Temper OX KHS? Worth a resell. Hardrock not so. What's the plan for the silver Zoom bars? 🤔
The Hardrock has a new home already so the Zoom kit will end up on eBay soon no doubt. Once I've stripped the KHS though I think I'll sell that one, would be nice to keep it but the size is a shade too small.
Always wanted a P7, especially with those forks. I'm afraid to say that you'll have to strip the XT rear completely. But it will come up like new. That's a lovely old Rockhopper too. Looking forward to the build. 👍
Oh I'm the same, absolute dream bike, this style F7 I've always thought looked very cool. The next project I'm working on has a very similar fork (big clue to another build I'm doing there 🤣).
Im using that frame in my ebike for about 10 years now. Someone powder painted it black and i couldnt find what brand it was. Thanks for that video
Awesome!!! Are you in Europe by any chanc, them seems more popular over there?
40 quid! Well found mate. Years ago, I bought my mate's DX gruppo 92 Cinder Kone with Project 2 forks. Beautiful bike to ride.
Oh nice, I'm working on a very similar bike at the minute but from the year before 😁👍
@@TheRetroBiker Try not too make me feel too old mate 🤣🤣👍
Like the new Honda band thank you for making the videos I catch up on the ones I miss and I thank you and appreciate the effort and time that you make in making your video🇬🇧🇺🇸
Kind words, thanks man. Nice to share all these cool bikes with people that appreciate them as much as I do 😁👍
where do these get rehomed? back on facebook?
It goes to my friend that has a cool little shop in Bridport, he sells on eBay mainly.
@@TheRetroBiker I didn't even see this one pop up on the Taunton page. Cool frame, love the gid stickers.
I'd love that but I would restore it all with new paint and graphics
@@TheRetroBiker Paul?
Not nesseccarily, my 95 Kona "Hei Hei" is going to run old school "Zokes' which maybe weigh more but performance wise are worlds above the "Cool" factor of running a Rock Shox...the only Rock Shox I would run on my Kona would be the "Mag 21 Ti" which I might do instead....what bike is yours?....Don't get me wrong, been revisiting my mountain bike roots for the last 3-4 years and have bikes that were only a pipe dream in the early mid 90's but, still find myself learning about what was trick for those bikes as those components were for the most part such as the bikes a pipe dream
Later arch for 'v' brakes too... Do the legs need pushing up further into the crown though?
Yeah I've got the canti arch and they do definitely need shoving down a bit 🤣
Think I should say down more than up! 🤦♂️
Good old Times, love it🤘😇👍
