Check this "weapon" out.

I guess it's a weapon as you could use it to hit sombody over the head with, if you could lift it! :P

    I didn't know they did a Rockhopper FSR. Is it worth the money?

    That's a Spesh from about what - 99 or 2000 maybe?
    You only need two tools: WD40 and Duck Tape.
    If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
    If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.

    I'm not sure I get this post, it's an old bike, selling for a reasonably cheap price? :P I had one of the old 2001 Enduros, similar shock design, looked like this. 5" travel, weighing about 30lbs, seems like a bit of a pioneer modern trail bike imo.

    Maybe the OP has incorrectly identified it as simply a BSO with Spesh stickers on it - not an uncommon sight on ebay.

    That's a great bike for its era and still riden by an ex DH racer friend of mine to great effect. It was his sisters ride when she was UK no 1.

    If I wanted a piece of history I might even be tempted.

    they were pretty nice bikes back in the day, that head angle doesn't look quite right though...
