as a collectors piece maybe. as a bike no. mtb designs have gotten much better since this came out

That was a nice bike for its time, like 20 years ago. If it’s pristine (I can’t tell) and you’re a huge fan of GT bikes then sure. But as a modern mtn bike, you can do so much better than that. Heck, my carbon fiber framed 2014 Giant Trance is probably worth about $500 and is a much better bike.

As a museum piece maybe. For riding I’d say no.

Absolutely not. For many reasons. One in particular – fork is a 1993 model. I know because I sold them new…in 1993. Requires special tools to service. Even many shops did not have the tools back in the day, and parts have been unavailable for several decades.

Is it for a vintage build ? Hard to tell what you’re looking at for 500$ original bullseye hubs? Flight cranks? Shit even an uni seat??? I’d sell you my RIPPER for 500 hmu 🤙

Nice yard, how about some pictures of the bike?
That looks like a bike for a small child
