This bike is old but it still gets comments, the headshok still works (no lockout)the saddle has an annoying squeak and absorbs water like a sponge but i still love it, I have stuck 3M Scotchlite stickers on swing arm / frame pedals etc which coupled with tyre sidewalls reflect at night, I plan to change the post saddle and rear derailleur at some point.
