Retro 1993 PROJECT 100% USA Made In America Mountain Bike RARE
Retro 1993 Answer Manitou FS Full Suspension Mountain Bike MTB 17" Vintage RARE Price is US $1500
Frame is dated April 14, 1993 Production #FS0806 Size - 17
I have for sale my 20 year "100% All USA made components" project. The bike is about 90% there. My goal was to build a non shimano all American bike. The bike was purchasedin 1993 at Cycle Sports in Alameda (Oakland) California. I am the original owner of the bike and it has been hanging on my wall (literally) for the last two decades. It has less than 100 miles on it and the frame is crack free. I rode my Klein Adroit instead. This is an absolutely beautiful piece of CNC machined art, all circa mid 1990's parts.
All parts are NOS completely unused with the exception of the pedals and brakes ( I heisted these from my old Yeti ARC)
All that it needs to finish it up is :
* rear cassette (Sachs or ??)
* chain (Sachs or ??? )
* brake/shift cabling
