I remember it because it was my first real MTB. I bought it in November 1993 a week after I got stationed in Oahu, there was actually a nice bike shop on base at the time. I was shocked when I picked it up and felt how light it was. It was exactly $1000 + tax. I also bought a Park workstand at the same time that I still use. A few months later I paid like $350 for a Mag 21 fork. Raced that bike in about 12-13 races.
Not mine but mine was the same.
