bought it new… its tan with 21inch top tube. i’ll get pics of it when i can.  
only rode it for about a year, not very hard either tho. i got out of riding, just didnt have time to do it with school and all.

also have the S&M slam bars. ok condition. i gotta dig my bike out of my shed and clean it up.

i’m lookin for 120 for the bike frame. 15 for the handle bars.

hey guys…

i pulled the bike out the shed today and striped it down to the frame and cleaned it up some.

the trail frame has 21inch top tube with 3/8" axle slots and 1 1/8 inch head tube for 1 1/8 inch forks. seat tube i think is around 25.4mm… somewhere around that, not 100% sure. the opening appears to be around 25-26mm but subtract some for clearance.

i have a FSA the pig headset that i will include with the frame. the headset is like new, bought same time as the bike and used for one summer basically.

the Slambars are in abit worse shape than i thought. they have mild surface rust forming… you can see it in the pics. i can try and clean it up but not sure how to get it off… needs some sort of rust remover and/or buff it off. might hurt the chrome finish tho but its already cloudy and has mild blemishes in it. the bars are about 1.5 years old or so… possibly 2 years.

I also got a Voxom stem that is included with the handle bars. all the parts with it too. or else if you want it with the bike frame i will sell it to ya for 8 bucks.

i have no rims/cranks/seats/brakes/sprockets. just the frame, handlebars, headset, and stem. i also got the factory fork off a 99 or 00 schwinn predator bmx bike. make offer on that… its light and not damaged but aint worth much LOL

pics! hope they work

to get the rust off you can either take very high grit sandpaper, keep soaking it in water as you rub down the metal, and then wash it off, making sure you keep the sandpaper wet

or if that scares you too much (it shouldnt)

then you can take a can of Coca Cola, mash up a handful of alluminum (sp?) foil, and as long as you keep the foil wet, it will work perfectly, and will not scratch in the least, no matter how bad it seems, just make sure u keep it wet

hope this helps man, and hopefully u can get it off and get some extra loot

do you know how much it weighs? im stuck with my old school STA which weighs a ton and id like to lighten my bike. i would just have to find a grinder for the axle slots.

edit: also do u have a pic that shows the rear axle slots so i can see if it looks like there is room to grind it to oversized axles.
