Klein Attitude Gator "Test Bike"

[SF Klein]

Couple of dings to the tubing according to seller but I couldn't tell from the pics. Frame has been drilled for disk brakes presumably :roll: Has "Test Bike" debossed in the paint like "Klein" and "Attitude" to indicate it was a bike shop's loaner bike back in the day.

There is a pic from the front showing the top tube with a pretty large dent.

if there were only one of those issues, I might have been interested. but a COMBINATION of those various issues and I say "good luck with your sale"

No just to put a full brake cable outer through the frame.

I've seen a couple of these 'test bike' Kleins and its under the laquer so quite a job to remove,I agree with you though!

debossing the test bike decals... :? what did klein intend with that back in the days? the dealers not making business out of that test bikes? or did they just not care about it...

You could change it to "I DETEST BIKES"
