Have built up an old 90's MTB and there are just a couple of bits that I still need to find. Does anyone on here have an old triangle frame bag they'd sell me? I'm after red or purple mainly, but any option will be considered!

I did have one (on my 90's mtb, in the 90's!) but alas its long gone.

Out of interest, what are you building?

I do like a retro MTB, mainly for the nostalgia value I get think about my misspent youth.
In reply to Richard Carter:

Well I had a rusty old M-Trax Ti1000, it's been painted up, gave it some bright red Magura's then replaced the drive train. Couldn't be bothered looking for old parts so it has an XTR drive train :-P

I have one from years back, the only problem is that the zips appear to have rusted up !
In reply to Chris the Tall:

All the modern ones are so boring though, was hoping for something with a bit of colour.

Alpkit make custom frame bags in yellow and red but you do pay rather more than the Decathlon off the peg version. I think they start at £65 ish.

As long as you put an anodised purple DCD on it, I'll be satisfied.

Is there any point what with Shadow+?

> Is there any point what with Shadow+?

Absolutely none. But then they were awful anyway. but that's beside the point!
In reply to Richard Carter:

Just out of curiosity I weighed the bike to see how it'd stack up against a modern bike, was only 10.5kg so not as bad as I'd feared!

The fork was surprisingly bad though, 1.5kg for a rigid fork is a lot more than I thought it'd be :-P
