2008 Specialized Hotrock FS 24

Best for 4’3″-4’9″ riders. Lightweight childrens bike with grown-up bike technology and components – A1 aluminum alloy frame, Shimano 21-speed drivetrain, front shocks, 24″-diameter wheels, 24×2.125″ all terrain tires. 

This bike was left outside for too long. Aluminum frame wasn’t affected, and I de-rusted or replaced all steel and rubber components. This bike looks and rides like new again.

This bike is available for $400. Email me  at bikesheaven1@gmail.com with any questions. Shipping in the continental USA is $250
