I'd love a Randonneur (RandonneurExtra, RandonneurAlloy) but they are rare and more expensive than I am willing to pay right now. Still around the €500+ in general or sometimes €250 if you're lucky.
Other cool MTB models are the Terrarunner, Sky Runner (Lugged Carbon) and Ti Runner (lugged titanium). There were some wild frames and material combinations going on around the early 90's. Getting one in my size is an issue though.
And I'm still on the lookout for a nice TerraLiner, preferably in the Carbolite variety.
