Looks like **** to me.

One piece crank is junk 100 percent of the time.

Robinsons were never really that great as they owned by GT and even their top model wasn't anything to write home about. That thing has just lower mid 90's Mongoose stuff hence the one piece crank, and any other Mongoose stuff on it. I don't believe there was a Supergoose around that time and that name was left behind in the 80's. The frame was spray bombed and the Mongoose fork doesn't help out. I would of felt taken if I spent 85 on that heap. Could make a nice garden bike. lol.
