Can any of you guys help me out.
Casting my mind back to the heady summers of 1997/8 which was probably the peak of my MTB fanaticism, two bike really stand out in my memory. Aside from my unhealthy Kona obsession, the Manitou HT and a Cannondale downhill bike that I just can't remember what it was called...
It was almost certainly 97/98 and I am pretty certain Missy Giove raced on it but it was fairly unique. It was never realesed commercially, only team issue / test bike.
It was red with two tiny yellow linkages (really short, about a couple of inches long at most). The rear was a straight swingarm.
I also recall it having some gearing inside the bottom bracket bacuase it had two small chainrings on either side of the BB.
Vague description I know but it is really bugging me!
Here's your chance guys...let see who can crack the mystery!
