About this product
This is a vintage 22-inch Bridgestone BB-1 mountain bike frame, crafted from CrMo steel and finished in red. It comes as a frame and fork configuration, designed for 26-inch wheels and cantilever brakes. Featuring a 130mm rear spacing, this frame is suitable for men and was originally made in Taiwan. It's an ideal base for restoring a classic mountain bike.
Our take
For vintage mountain bike enthusiasts, this 22-inch Bridgestone BB-1 frame offers a fantastic foundation for a restoration project. The CrMo steel construction is highly regarded for its ride quality and durability, a hallmark of classic mountain bikes. The red color is quite striking, and as a 'frame and fork' package, it saves you from sourcing a matching fork. Designed for 26-inch wheels and cantilever brakes, it's true to its era. Just be aware of the 22-inch frame size, which might be large for some riders, and the vintage aspect means it's not compatible with modern standards like disc brakes or larger wheel sizes. At $339.99, it's a significant investment for a frame.
