1991 Specialized Hardrock 18" Women's Turquoise
Classic do-it-all mountain bike, best for 5’5”-5’11” riders. Lightweight (28lbs) and indestructible CroMoly steel frame, 21-speed drivetrain, beautiful turquoise frame, 26×1.5” city street tires that you can ride off-road as well. This bike was used as an indoor trainer and preserved in excellent shape. I installed a new chain, cassette, and bottom bracket bearings to make it ride like new again.
This is Paul’s bike now.
