For me it looks a little bit like a 369 rather than a 269!

Whats with the funny red stripe on the torquemeter?

Did someone put a C-18 in it? Which is feasible as it may have had one from new at that time.

Otherwise it looks pretty sharp for its age.

Still loving the pics VF. Thanks again. I’m taking the missus and our three kids trekking there for 9 weeks later this year. Can’t wait. At this stage 4 weeks around Annapurna and no plans yet after that, but open to recommendations, preferably off the beaten track...!
