***SOLD***

If this isn't considered classic/vintage enough, please feel free to move it to regular For Sale forum...

The only remaining original parts are the headset (serviced & in great condition), seatpost & saddle, and the brake cantilevers. Everything else is new.

Let me know if you have any questions.

That's the nicest Hard Rock build I've ever seen.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Are you moving to the East Coast so I can save on shipping? :lol:

PMed!

Replied!

Great deal, great looking ride!

I'll bite on the kudos too. Bang up job integrating in modern components (including a great job on the threadless headset) in a way that doesn't seem jarring at all.

This should go fast!

Thanks for the compliments everyone - it was a fun project bike for me.

This bike is now sold!!

Can’t believe I tried selling it on FB marketplace for the past 5 months I should have just come here first, lol.
