My favorite frame, S&M Next Generation Dirt Bike, shipped back as a complete bike with me when I moved home from California.

I really liked the geometry on this frame since it was easy for me to get used to (2002) from riding so long ago. I had great times with this bike.

and would probably still be riding it today if it wasn't for an unfortunate accident. I left the bike outside at my parent's house after moving home. Not realizing it was outside, it rusted. The rims turned white, most of the hardware gold with corrosion, and the frame developed surface rust.
At the time it still spun smooth, but looked horrid.
I thought about restoring it, but the longer time went on, I eventually moved on to other bikes. Now I'm riding a frame circa 2006, and am getting ready to buy something even more modern with an even more aggressive rake on the head tube and shorter rear end.
So, here is my once beloved S&M for sale.
$75 takes frame, bottom bracket, and Profile SS 3pc cranks, FSA Pig Headset, and Proponent rear brake is included with the frame. Everything included in the pictures are included, and nothing more.
