An update as I bought a new one recently...
Old bikes (no longer owned). You could say I had a thing for a certain North Yorkshire firm...
Pace RC 200 F1 with Pace RC35 AB forks. You'll have to excuse the ridiculous seat height...
Pace RC200 F8 with Pace RC 36 forks. Those early Hope discs weren't great!!
Pace RC300 with Pace RC31 forks. Single speed and on slicks...
Kona Explosif 1993 (The last Joe Murray designed bike). With the fluted down tube for those in the know. Pace RC36 (I think) forks and a terrible front disc adaptor. One of two Explosifs owned over the years.
Klein Attitude 1991. Dolomite colours (what else) and the earlier box fork. I had the frame and forks repainted and then built it up as a lightweight project. 14.9 lb in the end, albeit in single speed guise. One of two Attitude's. The first was unfortunately stolen.
Current fleet.
As posted earlier in the thread.
1991 Alpinestars Cro-Mega DX complete with Flex-stem.
Trek Roscoe 8.
Trek Rail 7. My first ebike and what a brilliant thing it is too.
Edit.
I also have a 10th Anniversary Orange Clockwork frame and forks. They're at work currently waiting for paint. Luckily we use a lot of white and orange paint there!!
The non MTB collection consists of a Giant Propel Pro 2 road bike and a Cube Editor hybrid. This is belt drive with an 11 speed hub and is lovely to ride.

Love those old Kleins
Some nice bikes there @The Bear78 and @Stu007
Love the old Pace stuff. Had forks, chainrings etc but never a frame I’m afraid to say. The Ritcheys are pure class. Steel is real!!

Have a look on pinkbike. It’s a buyers market at the moment so there plenty of decent bikes for sale on there.
Strangely enough we have one in the cellar that needs shifting to make space for the wife’s new e-bike.
Unfortunately we are in W Yorkshire.
It’s a decent Mondraker but is old tech now as it’s 26” wheels etc.

Yeah I'm trying to sell my hardtail but haven't had any bites - mind you it's a very niche bike and I'm in no rush to sell so I've not priced it to sell fast!
Yeah, cheers @StueyStuey. I had already looked on pinkbike/singletrack/eBay etc. only found a few things that may suit but mainly wrong sizes or way too much money for what it is. I agree with you it’s now become a buyers market but some people are still expecting covid prices!!!
Did have a Kona blast hard tail and the white felt full suspension Scott scale 70 hard tail is ma workhorse just went and purchased specialized levo emtb cycle to work cheep purchase o £2400 and last year's cycle to work specialized gravel bike funny I was always against gravel and emtbs now I own both and own 1 road bike Ridley helium
