I never offroaded my Project 3 much but in that New England single track it ran pretty good. As a commuter it was great especially in the snow. The nice thing is when these first came out MTBs were starting to move to that stupid 'Hyper Driver' stuff with the small chainwheels, these still had 28/38/48 rings so with those 700c wheels they would really move out.
I'd love to have a copy of the original specs from the '92 catalog on this thing, BG. Anyway you could post it here, email, or PM a copy to me?
