MTB wanted

[bushwacker bob]

They were expendable

I think a trade is going to be difficult to agree given the value mate. ill politely withdraw it. ive not lost all hope of the wife letting me keep her. I lusted after this bike for a few years before i got it and it'll kill me if i have to let her go.

What kit would you REALLY like for this bike?

 

[ex-member BareThrills]

lol. my amazon wish list has a number of juicy goodies on but seriously i want to try and hang on to the bike. posting it up here promoted a violent reaction to the thought of selling it. if you happen to have an exped down mat, ridgeline euro smock, a 2 man mountain tent and lots of titanium cookware you might persuade me

 

[robevs73]

I have an exped mat a Saunders tent and a titanium mug, don't know what that smock is thoe.

MTB = Motor Torpedo Boat in my mind too. The advice about using plain English on the forum is a valid one.

It was plain enough to get me a deal!

I have a Kona Lanai that is not being used. It has only had one outing on road before being put in a shed for the last few years.

I would prefer to part with it for cold hard cash but for the right gear it could be swapped.

Let me know if you are interested.

"A mountain bike or mountain bicycle (abbreviated MTB) is a bicycle created for off-road cycling"

He got the job done....them that have a Mtb know what mtb stands for

 

[bushwacker bob]

I have a mountain bike and call it a mountain bike, as an acronym I thought that MB would be better.
Why select a random letter from the middle of one of the words to use in the acronym?

 

[ex-member Raikey]

hahahahaha this is barmy,...

i have one too,....

i didnt know what it was until i read this,.....

i also dont really care enough to let it eat into my Saturday evening too much though,....let alone do a search and quote the link

I paid over £400 for a Mountain Bike for my lad, still had no idea what an Mtb was apart from Motor Torpedo Boat and neither did he.

Still, the main thing is a trade was done, but think hard about using plain English in posts, not all here speak English as a first language.

That's alreyt , I didn't know it could be an abbreviation of a motorized torpedo boat ! Do they do un motorised torpedo boats ?
Good 'elth

I need a 17/18" frame

 

[Treemonk]

ah - pity - my spare frame is a 16" (I'm 5'6")

 

[Pignut]

Ah, I'm 6ft but like a smaller frame.. Could size up a bit but 16" may be a little small.

Parts may be of interest though
