Hi Bianchigirll, thank you for the warm welcome.
Unfortunately I haven't been able to see the bike in person yet. I will be viewing the bike tomorrow. The seller's location is quite the drive and I was hoping to have enough info about the bike to make the purchase so I wouldn't have to make multiple trips, but it seems I'll be doing just that. The picture is the only one provided from his CL posting. I'm from Canada and I would assume it's a Canadian bike. I've been trying to do my own research on the forums and found a pic of the one shown below. It has similar features; DT decal, chrome fork and gum coloured hoods. Though the model is still a mystery :/ I sent the seller (yet) another message if he could tell me what model Suntour components and tubing type. Hopefully he'll get back to me soon. I'll keep you posted. Thanks again for your help!
