Extremely rare, dual suspension bike.

Only one other complete one is known.

This bike's frame and fork had flakey orange overpaint on it- so it was carefully picked off with razor blades (orig paint too fragile for solvent), revealing the original dark red paint. Some illustrations show this bike with painted fenders, others with more deluxe stainless, as this one has. Original Delta battery tube and Delta  Silver Rays. The rear suspension is very tricky to ride and brake- probably why none exist.

Rare aluminum frame 26" bike. Was a complex 16  month restoration with extensive frame damage, and missing & damaged parts. Currently on display    at  Riverside Cyclery in downtown Ottumwa, Iowa.
