This is a classic bike ridden by professional racers who's sponsors didn't have decent DH bikes. The M1 bounced onto the scene under the legendary Shaun Palmer, and has since been ridden by John Tomac, Mick Hannah, Mike King, the Athertons etc etc. The frame has been updated since the early versions and now features the Horst link (similar to Specialized bikes), monocoque frame and loads of adjustability including progressiveness, head angle/ BB height, and wheel base all by adjusting the pivot points. I put on a 2010 Manitou Swinger 4 way shock which was slightly shorter length (8.75" instead of 9") than the original Romic which bought the angles in line with more modern bikes.

The frame is in great nick as it wasn't in use for 5 years as I lived in Cambridge (pancake flat) then was travelling for 18 months. It comes fitted with sweet stuff (lots of which is nearly new!) worthy of such a wiked frame.
