1992 Deluxe Goat

This bike was listed on Craigslist in Asheville last week. I generally don't bother looking at the bike listings since very little of interest pops up locally. This ad was forwarded to me by several friends who apparently DO have time to look at Craigslist! I contacted the owner and was able to arrange a pickup at his place of business. He picked this up years ago in trade for a 1970's era tandem and hadn't used it much since then. It was missing the top of the seat which was a little odd. Once we got it home, we figured out it had a stuck seat post which likely explains the missing seat. Someone tried to free up the post by using the seat as leverage and the post was more stuck to the frame than the seat was to its rails! After a liberal dose of Kroil, the seat post finally gave up and came out but probably gave its life in the process. The drivetrain is mostly Suntour XC Pro with Syncros accessories and Sun rims. It also uses Ringle Cam Twist quick releases and a Kona titanium bottom bracket. Not sure what the paint would be called but it has the Nuovo Flames over some type of camoflage pattern.
