If you told me yesterday I'd buy a Klein I'd have laughed

Ah, what the hell. Seller claimed it's a 88-89 Pinnacle. I'm thinking a Rascal myself, 90-91ish? Pretty good shape. Mix of XT, Suntour, and some new parts.SN appears (to my failing eyes with a flashlight shone at an angle) to be R5E1 on the drive side dropout and 35 on the non drive side. If any Klein gurus can decipher that for my I'd appreciate it. Now, to go out to the garage and see if I have any 1.5" slicks.

I'm with you on the rascal, as I think pinnacles had rack mounts on the seat stay.

Looks tidy.

Phone pic in bad light. It has rack mounts. It's the R in the S/N that leads me to believe it's a Rascal.

Def. not a Rascal because of the drop-outs. It´s a 22" Pinnacle.

Great bike! I have a similar frame which I believe is a 1990 Pinnacle. Might be 89 as well. Interesting to compare serial numbers. It's a great rider!

does that mean you'll become all elitist and snobby towards everyone now you are a Klien owner?
