I scored a great deal, twice.
Its a Black market Malice frame, bought on a closeout at a hefty discount.
And up front we have a brand new, uncut Manitou Sherman Jumper. Do you even remember those? Well, do you?
Thanks. It was a bit surreal to get a brand new Jumper handed over, it even had the bubblewrap around the fork arch when I got it. I think I bought my first Sherman jumper back in 2005, now 11 years later, I have my third one.
The sherman jumper was made on demand from Aaron Chase and (insert name) Porter who rode for street/dirt for Manitou at the time. I got one for my first Cannondale Chase and then another one for my first Black Market MOB. it has 3" travel and a very firm spring.
