If I'm reading sticker on fork right in pic, a Suntour M3000 doesn't have a lockout or any adjustments. Bummer but not end of world.

Hi, I just joined the forum a few days ago. I came across it whilst trying to ID a bike I was thinking about buying. I was a pretty serious rider during the 80's and 90's but like many, marriage and kids became more fun. I still have my trusty '93 Litespeed Classic as well as a '89-ish Fuso that was on a computrainer (mostly unused for MANY years) until recently. I started out in the early 80's riding mountain bikes but switched to riding road almost exclusively in the mid 80's when I bought a Trek 560EX. Even though my riding the past 15 years has been mostly on a mountain bike towing a Burley trailer with my boys or on one of the local bike paths, I always stop to look at or buy cool bikes when I see them. Anyway, now that the kids are older teens, I've recently caught the bug again. I've bought 5 or 6 great bikes in the past few months including a Felt cyclocross, a newer Stumpjumper (my current fav), a 2001 Klein, a California Masi and the latest one, a Derosa, I guess. Definitely a work in progress, it needs a lot of help. Thanks for letting me check out all the great bikes and knowledge. Brad

Are you aware that it is possible that your Fuso and your Masi frames were built by the same person?

I didn't know that. The Masi is a San Marcos build I think. Fuso is an FR1. I started here with the intention to post a picture but it wouldn't let me yet.

my Montague X70 came with maybe a mid-range shocked fork w/lockout but I don't really need a shocked fork. Cured with a Surly fork and can mount water cages, front racks or Salsa Anything Cages. The air smells sweeter now.

Unfortunately I snapped off one of the original plastic ones when my shorts caught on it throwing my leg over. Those are the next generation metal ones.

Hopefully I can post these now. I just picked this up a few days ago. Derosa. Early 80's I think.

Does anyone have any thoughts on the model or year of this bike? My guess is 80 or 81. Any help would be appreciated.
