make:  Jamis   model:  Diablo
year:  1992    color:  black w/ yellow letters

frame+fork:  full chromoly steel. no cheap high tensile steel like dept 
store bikes eg: Huffy, Murray, etc.

size:  18.5 inch frame. typical rider height is about 5'8" to 6'2".

components:  Shimano Deore DX + LX mix.  21 speeds.  Above the bar thumb 
shifters.  These high quality components are built to last.

Asking $315, but highly negotiable, extras too.  This bike has been used 
but never abused and always maintained.  It is a great bike for someone 
who wants to take up trail riding or use as a commuter bike/campus bike.  
It is so much more than a brand new sub$400 bike.  Entry level bikes 
like Specialized Hardrocks, Trek 800 series, Giant Iguana, GT Taleras, 
etc are not made for real riding.  Their frames are not full chromoly, 
and their components are plasticy and not durable.  Department store 
bikes are not safe to ride to begin with.

I would prefer to sell to someone in the Maryland, Washington DC, 
Northern Virginia area.  Anyone interested, please e-mail for more 
information.
