While it is purple, I can tell you this was the first mountain bike I ever owned and it was truly the worst by a long shot. So many good weird old bikes out there, this one feels like the worst place to start! Don’t relive my bike trauma!

Wrong sub for being talked out of something like this. N+1 and if your wife tells you to sell a bike just post it for 2x value. That’s the rules around here
