The bike has now been stripped down and unbelievably this pile of Ariel is what we are not going to use. In addition I have what appears to be a complete Burman gear box in bits to go with it.
The intention was that Andy Pitt was going to have all that remained as he originally owned it, but as the time is not right Andy has had to pass and I have listed all my spare items on ebay.
Someone could have the basis of a pretty good trials bike for a reasonable price.
When you consider that a new frame is over £1000 and I doubt that this lot will reach anywhere close to that, it must be a good start to a fairly inexpensive project for the winner of the auction.
To be honest, an engine (£1000), pair of wheels (£4-500), Forks (£2-300) and £200 worth of cables, bars, levers and ancilliary bits and it seems that £2000 on top of my parts and someone has a really cheap Ariel that would be worth twice that just by putting it together.
