We turned 21 this year so we thought we’d celebrate with a nostalgic blast through the past. Here’s a gallery of our old aluminium hardtail models.
Many thanks to the lovely guys over at Retrobike for helping us out find a lot of these images.
As well as featuring a lot of our old aluminium hardtail mountain bikes this gallery is full of choice retro goodies as Biopace chainrings, Club Roost riser bars, Manitou elastomer forks, Pace RC36 forks, bar ends, massive stems and classic Mavic rims.
Enjoy the trip down memory lane

Still a fun-riding bike

Traces of the original blue paintjob can still be seen
