First post hello
Hi everyone! UK bikepacker here out of Manchester. Been lurking and learning for a while.
I have two 90s MTBs that I ride regularly. First is a mid 90s Claud Butler Caribou mostly original but adapted for comfort off-road. 2nd is a bit more interesting Univega Alpina 503 from 1995 that is very zingy double butted .9 - .6 steel with a slacker front end but older style rear triangle. Planing on 1x drop bar biggest boots possible makeover cheap style and will no doubt ask basic questions. Cheers!
