I'm a bit of a die-hard 80s/90s full rigid mountain bike guy. It occurred to me that as I live in Canberra it would be neat to have a Spokesman mountain bike. However, from what I can work out Spokesman (at least as a brand as separate from the frame makers) was probably out of business/gone by the mid 80s...possibly missing the mountain bike craze.
Am I wrong in this? Has anyone out there got, or even seen, a Spokesman mountain bike? If the answer is no, such a beast doesn't exist, is there anything else (Pegasus maybe?) of the era that was locally made that I could try and scrounge up?
EDIT: This could also go in the Retro forum, but figured it would also fit here!

cant say I have ever seen one. Possibly they were not still building bikes when mountain bike started to become popular?
