1997 2 Hip Big Boy
I had one of these frames back in 97-98, and found another in 2011 thanks to the North New Jersey crew. I had to build frame/fork up as soon as I got it.
This frame has a weird geometry. It is more like the 84 to 85 Pro Performers.. The head angle is 71, and feels choppered. The forks feel bent all the time (compared to a normal 74 head angle).
Most parts are era correct, and some parts I may replace with better condition parts as I find them.
