I've mentioned in another thread about being the first kid on the block to have a mountain bike which I adored, but I'd love to see a picture of it again and to know it's name.
I got it for Christmas 1989 and at that time it must have been one of the first if not THE first cheap end mountain bike on the market. It was a Raleigh and there was a male and female version. The colour scheme was a sort of pale mustard colour on one half of the bike fading to white on the other and it had 5 gears, chrome handle bars and black sponge hand grips. Also, one of the best things about it was that it didn't 'tick' when you free wheeled so you could quite easily sneak up silently on people.
