Basic Bike Info

Bicycle Type: 
Mountain Bike
Color: 
dark red
Condition of Bicycle / Distinguishing Features: 
Got it 2nd hand at a bike auction several years ago: frame is covered in sharpie (an attempt to block out the Trek from before I bought it), the water bottle cage is broken, but I used black gaff tape to tape it back on (it's coming loose again). There's a working rear red light & red reflector just below the seat post, and a non-working white front light on the handlebars. There's a second loose light mount on the front bars too. I just put new tires on it a couple months ago, and a new seat a few weeks ago. It had a kryptonite combo lock on the seat post, and my blue & white Giro helmet on the handlebars.
