Makes sense too (from a frame perspective, not sure from a financial one - did that require a repaint?). Room for bigger tires than if it had been done with something more recent.

The electrical tape obscures how they kludged these two bars together. I'm not sure I want to know. Also, the bike can have "Fire Mountain" written on the top tube, and they'll still read the fork and call it a "PROGECT TWO JOE MURRAY"
