Over on the Caldera thread, thanks to @murphy79 @TiHardtail we have the 1997 dealer tech sheet. What's that about 853 tubing?



Errrr...we know that's not the case as well discussed here. It does add more evidence to the "Altitude were struggling" theory.

Great wall art though...to be fair, this is repairable in the right hands and if it were mine, it'd be ridden with zero regrets of any further scrapes and scratches. Did anyone here score it?

I've updated the list:

H09607080 - 16" 1997 Red, Goathead Dropouts. Original Decals. Top of seat-tube removed. Holes in drive-side seat-stay.

"Selling my early 90's Kona Hot, frame # TET 549. Was a race bike, bought it to build up years ago with my son but he moved on to full suspension, only got the rebuilt Judy Race fork done.....been hanging on wall too long. Nukeproof hubs, I believe Topline cranks, cool titanium Titec Bontrager handlebars, etc. "
