One reason I bought my Iguana in '92 (which I am still riding) is that I liked the name--and a friend at work had a four-legged iguana. Another reason is that the Iguana in 1992 was highest rated in its price range by Consumer Reports.
The bike shop had ordered ten Iguanas, and received one, and had already had phone inquiries about it. The one they received happened to be my exact size. So I snapped it up....
Not that it matters, but I stated elsewhere on the Forum that I got that bike in 1993. I just discovered while researching this, that it was in 1992.
