I like the Rock Ring; has a good look. Took me a minute to figure out how the outer chainring was attached though

Idk it was screwed together until I actually looked at it myself. I thought for sure it was riveted. To me that indicates that it's not an el-cheapo!!!lol!!!😆

Built April 21, 1991. "Sierra" was the top of their MTB line back then. I have the next level down, an Impact Pro MOS, and it's sweet. Did you get a load of those chainstays?
"Rough"? That bike is in awesome shape for nearly 30 years old. Tire(s?) may be original....

Somebody posted a Pioneer SX-1250 on Craigslist once for $20, didn't stayup for 20 minutes...I'm sure it was a prank but it's amazing what things SWMBO can accomplish.

I have a 1991 Sierra MOS in burnt chrome. I like your stem and handle bars. I'd love to do the same to mine. What stem and bars are those? Thanks.
