That's a tough call, especially coming from someone who could probably fit your frame, and might be talked into buying it. So, with that caveat: There's something that has prevented you from unpacking that box, and now has you here. Most likely it's a money-to-need ratio that isn't settling well. I had this issue a while back. I'd always wanted a Gary Fisher Klunker, an homage to the original Repack bikes. It was built in small quantities in the mid-'90s, and half of them remain on bike-shop walls. Last year I found a very nice one, and paid $1200 for it. Technically I could afford it, but it was still big money in my world. I rode it a while, looked at it a lot, then..it started to nag at me. I had no emotional investment in the early mountain bike scene, and didn't seem to be getting all that much out of riding it. It just wasn't the "big deal" I thought it was going to be, so the investment started bugging me. So I sold it, losing a little money in the bargain, but it was the right thing to do for me. Recently I spent most of that money on a '94 Bridgestone XO-3, a sentimental purchase to replace a '94 I bought new that year, which was later stolen. I'm happy with the purchase every time I glance at it. So...do you really think the Hunqapillar is the cat's pajamas, or an expenditure that's not really "doing it" for you, and you'd rather have the money in your pocket, and the bike under another owner who's more "into it"? Btw, my buyer was thrilled to get his Klunker. That made me happy. Joe "no definitive answers" Bernard Fairfield, CA.
