1991 Bridgestone MB-4 Trailblazer, Red, 45cm/Small
This is a sweet, original Bridgestone rigid mountain bike designed by Grant Petersen with a lugged, Ritchey Logic Tange Steel frame and Cr-Mo fork. This is a rough and tumble bike that has mounts for fenders and a rear rack, and a lot of potential to be a sweet all terrain bike, commuter bike, bikepacking or rigid mountain bike, depending on how you want to ride it. The paint and decals are a little dinged up as shown, so you don't need to be too precious about it - it's low-key, classic, and rides so smooth. This one has a 45cm seat tube (center of bottom bracket to center of top tube), a 56cm top tube and sweptback bars, making it a good bike for a small rider, around 5'4” to 5'6". The long build (42.5cm chain stays) makes it extra stable and comfortable for long rides. 3x7 drivetrain (great for Seattle hills) with Suntour XC LTD derailleurs and Sugino GP 3 x 170mm crankset. Suntour Accushift Plus thumb shifters, and Dia-Compe Cantilever brakes and levers. Unique, made in USA by Con
