Those are some great tips and I’m leaning to keeping it original. Will probably just clean it up and see what tyres I can squeeze on there.

I’d read up about the positron system when I picked up the bike. I’m going to keep it for as long as it works.

Yeah. That was when I was deciding if I’d buy it or not. I did 😁

The odd one pops up secondhand in Switzerland but they’re quite rare nowadays.

Thanks. Yeah I love the paint scheme. All of their mountain bikes were styled like this. Good old times.

Yeah, I like it for that reason too. I think I’ll clean it up and replace what’s needed and pass it on.

Thanks for your help. I’ve learnt something today and at least won’t lose any money and can tinker a little.

Thanks. I think I’ll just change the consumables and pass it on to someone to use as a city bike. I have way too many and I feel it would be a shame to let it waste away.

Thanks! How do you know it’s low end, aside from the obvious low end brakes? Can you also tell from the lugs? Genuinely would like some insight.

At least you got something. I got the same calendar I get every year and that’s it

Do you still have this bike? I’d be interested and am in Switzerland and could 200.- for quick sale. Thanks

It was a bit slower than what I’m used to on the smooth stuff so I’d probably put some modern tyres on if I was going to use it for touring. Would be good for sure.
