Lots of pictures on the Internet for this bike: http://www.bikejournal.com/images/yl...der%20tree.jpg

Yes, I agree with knobster, it must be a Thunderbolt. Looks to be very similar in geometry to the Zeppelin. The Thunderbolt is not shown in the 2000 Airborne flyer, so it came along later. And Miamisburg Ohio is just outside of Dayton, so that is probably where I went in 2000. Oh, and it looks like a very nice bike in the new photos. Good luck with it.

Regards, Dick
