Classic do-it-all bike, best for 5’10”-6’4″ riders. Preserved is excellent shape. Lightweight (28lbs) and indestructible CroMoly steel frame, Shimano 21-speed drivetrain, Biopace-SG chainwheels, 26″ urban cruiser tires, beautiful turquoise color.
I have the two other 1991 Hardrocks: womens medium 18″-framed version and extra small 14.5″-framed version.
This is David son’s bike now.
