Rare Rock Lobster Hardtail (Used)

This is a very rare Rock Lobster from mid to late 90’s

Selling as a rolling chassis plus extras

I picked up this frame from a local collector about 5 years ago intending to build up as a dirt tourer or drop bar conversion.

At the time I connected with the legend himself Paul Sadoff and he recalled building a handful of these in the late nineties for a California dual slalom team. One of maybe six.

Fantastic tubeset and cool gussets at head tube and bottom bracket. Wishbone seatstay and dropouts are Bontrager style that Paul referred to as “Non-trager”.

It’s 17” Medium size.

Pains me to sell this amazing unicorn which would make for a rad dirt tourer hovercraft.

Prefer local sale, but willing to ship at buyers expense.
