x-mart means crap. There's no actual "X-Mart" store. It means something from k-mart or Wal Mart or Target... cheap bike.

Worth? $50 or maybe more to someone who thinks it's worh $50, maybe. The suspension stem looks like a cheap avenir model, nothing special. Sorry.

I will give 10 bucks for it and make more money by selling it to the scrap yard. They really love those heavy metal bikes.
