The bike was riding really well for a while. It was fast, shifted great, just worked really well. Then, I came home from a ride and my shifter randomly fell off in the driveway! The bolt holding the shifter to the brake lever literally just sheared off. Weirdest thing. Is this common with old...

Yeah I had been thinking about a belt drive. I don't have the cash to blow on that, but I'd love to see someone try it. Not having to ever break the chain is nice on this bike.

Thanks for the kind words. Yep, it's a 20.5".

Bike looks good! Funny thing is I recently set up a '91 cro-mega as an SS as well. You mentioned the chain skipping at the ring, afraid I've got the same issue.. Have you managed to alleviate it?

Thanks for the link. Sounds like the company wasn't around for long, eh. Too bad that site went down.

It certainly looks good sitting in the basement. Wish I knew the story on these bikes. Can't wait to take it on a real ride, just waiting on a new chain coming with a shipment of parts.

Recently picked up this Barracuda. Saw it in a big tag sale and had never heard of the brand.. but the double-butted tube sticker and LX components caught my eye quickly enough. It's Deore LX throughout, Araya rims, Barracuda label seat, seatpost, stem, and bars. I tried to look up some info on...

WOW. That's going to look amazing when it's done.

Thanks, that's a good thread :)

It's pink/white. Thanks guys

I've recently acquired an Alpinestars Cro-mega LX (e-stay). Is there a pattern they used with the serial numbers to determine the date? Thanks.
