1993 Bridgeston MB4- Mint Condition

[user 135]

I sold my newer mountain bike today as I wanted to replace it with a older "classic" MTB. I like the older geometry and did not need the front suspension or disc brakes. This Bridgestone MB4 popped up on CL a few hours later. The condition is near perfect with all original components. This will work great for a trail bike plus as a dirt road touring bike which is what I really wanted it for. It has a nice mix of Shimano Deore components and nice lugged chromoly frame. The price was really nice too. :wink:

Here is the original specs. √http://www.bikepedia.com/QuickBike/BikeSpecs.aspx?Year=1993&Brand=Bridgestone&Model=MB-4&Type=bike#.UWd8KBn_S_g

The guy's garage looked as clean as yours. Plus he already cleaned this bike. I think he must of had some of that Texas water.

Sounds like my kind of guy

Nice find. Looks clean.

Yep pretty clean. I plan on changing out the bars and stem to bring the riding position a little more upright.

That's a nice one! Great find.

That thing looks a lot like my '89 Supergo Access, even the color. Dig it.

But what really interests me is "dirt road touring". Please share when you do.

I guess mostly rail trail at this time. We have 2 in the state that are 80 and 170 miles long. And we are exploring more options close by. I should maybe call it my camping bike as most trips are 2-3 nights.

at the risk of highjacking the thread; look how similar to my old Supergo (Columbus tubing):

now relegated to winter road training:

Nice bike. Mine has Ishiwata tubing.

Good looking bike.

Thanks. Sadly it is to small. Going to work on a trade for something a little larger.
