Here is a legendary bit of mountain bike history, A 1993 A2R signature. Barracuda was a short lived manufacturer of great American made mountain bikes between 1993 and 1998. This bike is Colorado built and a very light chromoly frame. Lisa Muhich raced for team Barracuda in at least 1992-1994, she also raced for team Specialized. included is frame, fork, headset, bottom bracket, handlebar and stem. The Fork is a rock shox quadra, and the stem and bars are barracuda branded.

Thanks for bidding on this awesome vintage mountain bike frame.

That's a bizarre thing... I've never seen anything about "signature models"

Mark, The Grand Poobah, needs to put his Cuda fezz on and shed some light on this one!

Mark...

I sold Cudas. No such thing unless she (maybe) signed it...No heringgbone on the spot the colors meet either. Race frame?

I thought I saw somewhere she raced 14 inch bikes. I own one of the 93 A2R's and it is missing one of the herringbones. I don't think the herringbone decals were clearcoated on that year of A2R.
But $225.. Please..

I might be wrong but when you click the link to the Ebay auction, the signature is the 4th picture, and it's clearly a sticker. You can see the dirt around the edges of the clear celo sticker, it even has "signature" printed on the sticker.

Nice catch, Neo.. Maybe some dealer created their own "Signature Series".

I believe there were some bikes specced out a certain way, and they'd market them as her signature bike. Likely with a sticker. Wasn't its own model tho..

And to nobody's surprise, this went unsold. Should I send the seller a note and let him know I got my A2E frame for $10, or would that just be mean?
