    Hi everyone from Germany!
    Sorry for my poor english.
    I found your website via Google as I was looking for more info about Cudas. In Germany one only can find little info as the group of Cuda enthusiasts is obviously very small. Or the market was.
    I am the lucky owner of a Cuda A2T since a friend of mine left it in my garage not using it due to ill health. Its a brand new bike, only used once for a test ride!!! :D Your site aroused my enthusiasm for those bikes immediatly and now I am looking for more information:
    Barracuda A2T # AX080005 (? hard to read)
    16″ frame (Ladies?)
    Answer Manitou three easton e9 fork
    Tange Ultimate superlight frame (green/white)
    Shimano deore XT, SLR plus shifters
    XT pedals, Onza bars
    tree amigos decal
    US made decal

    Can you get me some info of the year build and an indication of the value of such bike in US please.
    I attach some photos also in the members bike column.
    Thanks a lot. I appreciate your work.
    Regards
    Gunther (devil)
    Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. I live near Frankfurt/Germany in the Taunus hills, great area to bike around. I am not a hardcore biker, but maybe from now on… ;) Looking forward to hearing from you all.

    H Gunther,

    Nice bike you have! There is information on the 94 A2T on the “Bikes” page of the website. I believe this bike in its current condition would be worth between $150-$250, but it could go higher depending on the buyer.

    Nice to have you here, I hope you keep it and ride!

    Best,
    Mark

    Dude.. What a nice Barracuda. That looks to be a 12″ frame (30.48cm). Measure from the centerline of the crank – to the center of the top tube (at the seat post intersection). You can compare it to my 14″ A2M in the Member section and see that your seat tube is shorter.

    Looking at your picture: Just make sure the seat post is below the “Minimum Insert Line” if you are riding it. Otherwise could crack the frame, yo.. :ugeek:

    Yes, that’s a great tip. If the post isn’t in the tube very much, you’re placing a lot of torque on a small area, and you’ll crack the seat tube near the top..
