Re: What is going on ????

Which bike brand had the single front fork, was it the Cannondale? I remember seeing those back in the day, but bought a Cuda instead.

Farm out the hard stuff...

There is a company in Kansas City that has a good local reputation. I talked to the owner a couple of days ago and he says that most of their work comes from out of town. They do all the media blasting, painting, powder coating, decals, air brushing. And will do the de-assemble and re-assemble if yo...

Yea, Krystle is her name. She is selling a nice XX for $250, but it's been on Craigslist for 10 days now, so she may be willing to negotiate!

Re: 1994- 16 inch- A2MS- AM3100297

Thanks Neo,
I've been in contact with this seller, she is selling her Dad's bike who is 6 foot and the bike is an 18 incher. And, she can't ship the bike for some reason.
It looks like a really nice bike though!

Re: 1994- 16 inch- A2MS- AM3100297

New tires, tubes, and a spit shin will probably work just fine. Would like to find a basket case to restore though...found this outfit who has a seemingly good rep and actually is based in Kansas City- not too far from where I live. So, if anyone has a lead on a 16 inch of any Cuda model, let me kno...

Re: Frame size?

Thanks...with the info you provided, I put the sketch together in hopes it would help others. I had a friend who bought a used Cuda a few years ago off Ebay and it ended up being too small...the seller did not measure the way Cudas are measured, instead he measured to the top of the seat post, so it...

Re: Frame size?

Frame size?

I know there are various ways to measure your bike, but is their a standard way that Barracuda bikes where measured? My bike is a 16 inch according to my paperwork, but when you use the standard sizing system (middle of crank to top of seat post), it shows as an 18 incher.
Thanks

Bought this new in the summer of 1994 from a Barracuda bicycle shop in Raytown, MO which was located off of 50 Hwy.
