Here is my mid 90's Serotta Colorado ATX, featuring tubes with unique profile. The seat tube and down tube flare from 31.8mm to 34.9mm at the bottom bracket junction. The original owner said it was from 1997 but the 1 inch headtube tells me it may be earlier. I bought it in original but very dirty condition. It was ridden until around 2001 and hung in a shed since then. Despite it looking pretty different from its original form, I changed surprisingly few parts because everything was in pretty good mechanical condition despite being banged up and caked with grease and dirt. I don't plan to ride super hard on the bike, so I gave it a build that would make it a nice looking and comfortable ATB to zip around on.
