New guy here!! 95' A2E

I just stumbled across this site while researching my new ride. One of my coworkers showed up with this the other day in his trunk and GAVE it to me.... I remember when my roommate worked at the LBS and we used to drool over these.. well I moved on to a KONA Kiluea and he went on to road bikes. I kindly "loaned" my kona to my brother and don't have the heart to take it back, and I can't justify a new bike (plus most of them just don't do it for me..). I am stoked for this I am still in shock. It came all original except it was missing the front wheel. I picked up a $150 Mongoose today decked out with a Marzocchi M2 fork XT/LX components S works cranks bontrager stem and bars etc... I am going to transplant most of the stuff to the Barracuda since its in better shape than what was on the bike, and the Rock Shox has a broken dropout. I am contemplating stripping the frame and painting it, it has a lot of scratches on the rear triangle, but I am wrestling with this, although the candy red is fading.. we'll see. Enjoy!!
