This frame had been passed around the lurkers of the shop I work at for years before sitting in the attic to collect dust. I came along and wanted a mountain bike to fool around on, but didn't have money to spend on anything new (or used for that matter). The shop owners pulled this out and said I could scrounge around the used parts room/attic/basement to build it up as I liked. It was originally gonna be singlespeed, but fixed seemed more fun for the time being. This is hands down the most fun bike I've ever ridden.
