1988 American Montaneus

 

American Bicycle Montaneus with the non-adjustable head tube angle.  ABM was known for their show or beauty welds that were left unfinished.  Sometimes referred to as toothpaste welds or roll of coin welds.  This one is in nice condition with a pretty full set of Deore parts with XT hubs.  20" frame with a 23.25" top tube.  We have several similar American bikes so we are offering this one for sale for $450 + shipping.

Deore rear derailleur

Deore thumb shifters

Deore crank, derailleur and U brake

Beauty welds (nice!)
