I bought this frame as a framest in 1996 at the xgames in chelsea pier,manhattan,to some really nice guys called pbc,or pennsylvania bike company,who also sold me a shirt,if you guys are out there,holla back,anyway,it was black,originally,and I seldom used it,as I was too used to my morales frames,still,I used it a bit,then stashed it away til 2004,when I used it for 3 months,then stashed it again until recently,its different form most shirties Ive seen/ridden/owned in the fact that the HTA is slower,and therefore better for me,ever since cw's I could never hang w/ultra steep angles.the bike is my main rider now,I love it,effortless combos abound,and since the parts are sorta new school,its pretty light,too,specially the front end,which sports a threadless odyssey pro flat fork,aheadset,gt piston stem and el cheapo lightweight flat bars w/no sweep courtesy of timberland boot stompings.the rest is pretty much simple,light componnetry,sr cranks,really light!36 h alex rims,acs rear tire,cst front,ally std type pegs,no frills,flat stuff,perfect for my aggro riding!
