I recently acquired this awesome machine from a buddy of mine. He no longer rides it, so I was generous enough to take it off his hands.

Whoaaa! Must be nice to have a friend hand you a 1000.00 dollar bill. Maybe not that much but I am sure with those parts on it I am VERY close. You can go ahead and send it ground ship UPS on Monday to me ahahahahaha. Seriously though you got some nice friends there. SWEET RIDE!
Good maintenance to your Bike, can make it like the wheels are, true and smooth!

Yeah i hooked him up with another bike of mine, this one was not in working condition when he gave it to me. Both axles were snapped, the rear dérailleur somehow had stripped high and low screws, the bottom bracket was all out of whack, the fork was not properly installed. And worst of all, both wheels were so out of true it was ridiculous. After 6 hours or so I've got it ridable.

That worked out well for you Big Grin . One of the major things I like on this one is the way the suspension is set up. Other then the old Schwinn XR-200 Silver edition Swing Link this is my favorite.

This bike is serious business. I sold it to a college student just getting into free ride. Hopefully it will serve him well.
