My '98 Klein Mantra

[matto]

Whats up people?

Still riding my 1998 Klein Mantra that I have had since early 1999 (Purchased New), major makeover in 2009 for its 10 yr birthday.

**Update 11/4/2021** Finally swapped back to some parts and added a new front derailleur. I had swapped back to the original Answer Manitou 70mm front suspension and got tired of it after about 6 months. Back on the Bomber.

**Update 02/2024**
Replaced tires with Kenda Nevegal Pro
Finally new saddle Chromag Trail Master

Now riding V4 of my bike.
