Pair of '96 Control Tech Team Issue bikes

I've been riding these for a while now and they're impressive. I'm 6' 5" and 260-300# and these bikes can handle the abuse that only a gorilla like me can dish out.
Both of these bikes are only off by 1 serial number- missing the middle for a trio. There were less than 100 of these ever made although Schwinn Homegrown and Ibis Szazbo shared designs and all 3 were made by John Castellano.

Black bike- Team Issue with original ControlTech V-brakes front and rear, original ControlTech seatpost, original XT rear derailleur, original Fox Alps 5r shock, original XT controls, and a mix of the rest. I use this as my road bike.
Silver bike- Team Issue with same shock, set up as Single Speed. Paul Word rear hub, XTR rear V- brakes, Truvativ crankset, Thompson seatpost, Minute airshock with Juicy disc on DT N'duro front. Moots stem, Crowbar. Franken-bike all around.

how do I add my pictures from my user gallery?

Thought you'd just missed the [/ off the end of the IMG tag, but maybe not

When you post, click the "g2Img" rather than "Img" and then just select them from your album.

thanks for the help.

I bought one back in the day here in Japan... I think a few ended up in Japan. My wife made me send send the frame to the recyclier when I moved.. 8 or 9 years ago. :cry:

Nice!.......are they on 15" wheels or are you 8 feet tall?.... :shock:
