mvrs and boychaos:
sorry, the bike I have doesn't match your descriptions :(
good luck!

my guess is that this could have been a temporary thrift store acquisition that was just abandoned. it's kind of a beater. still... if it's a beater someone loved...

dark red mountain bike rescued from a truck full of lost/abandoned bikes being given away as part of a clean-up effort on Sunday

it's in SF now. if you're missing this bike and you can describe it, I'd be happy to reunite you with it!
