This full suspension mountain bike is for vintage collectors or a mechanic that can appreciate it. It weighs only 25 lbs. It was made by AMP Research in Tustin, California. I will consider offers IF they are legitimate.

OFFERS: If your budget is $500 —That's a starter bike.The drive train won't last long for a starter but it's a good way to learn. I won't consider low ball offers. Yes, I'm aware it's Craiglist, hence this disclosure.

This isn't mass-produced Chinese alloy junk—it's a T6 Aluminum (Aircraft Grade) limited production run, USA made, with Shimano hardware. Amp Research Frames ALONE are selling for $900. They are made of Alcoa aluminum, specifically 6061 T6 aluminum alloy. This is widely known for its strength and lightweight properties. Custom painted by a professional it ran $300 and perfectly matches Mercedes factory Palladium silver. This bike folds for transport (case not included).
