Did he tell you what kind of components it had? That might help us track it down.

nope is was a GT "Borrago" with a neat old suntour xc expert group. anyone know how to yank off a power flow 8 speed cassette? I don't see any tool slots. I was thinking to try the chain whips next but what do ya'll think?

I traded a 1990 haro mountain bike plus 40 bucks (comming my way for it). It is that all to common GT triple triangle frame with the brake cable running in a gutter under the top tube. I picked it up on account of never seeing an 8 speed XC expert group before. The guy said it was a road bike, I mean it did have old school bull/devil horn bars...
