Post by: MartyC on December 11, 2011, 11:38 AM: He's lifted that text off of one of Ratty's posts from a few years back. Shame the bike is not an ACE Racing bike though sadly it's just a POS!

Post by: theRuler on December 12, 2011, 12:01 AM: I have the year before's model of the Mission Pulse.
The 96 wasn't a bad bike, very light weight.

In 1997 (as in this one) they went for en-vogue fat tubes.
This one also had the unfortunate "grind rings" that rotated on the pegs.

One day it will be collectable, I'm sure.
