    Klein Afficianados…

    There is a Large Klein Attirude, original fork/stem/bars, Magura HS 33 brakes, total collector piece for $325. On JH Facebook.
    A few years ago I would have bought it for the wall or flipped it, but I don’t have the inclination right now.
    I told her it’s not a carbon fork, btw.

    Remember the saying, Kleins Suck? The way the chainstays went from round to square made them prone to some of the worst chainsuck ever. Paint jobs sure were nice, however! Magura brakes with Modolo levers are pretty slick. That thing is minty

    Checking in... Had this one since I was 15. Little small now, so it hasn't been ridden much in the last 25 years.
    I raced it a bunch as a teen. Had rock Shox mag forks, Manitou, but i think my favorite was the old amp linkage forks.Click image for larger version.

    The scariest ones had the U-brake right next to the bb under the chainstays. Perfect place to catch a rock or a thick stick.
