    So I used to work at a bike shop and my buddy gave me this bike years ago. I don’t ride it anymore, so I was thinking of selling it for around $50. I wanted to research what bike it is first too see if it’s worth more, which I doubted. It was hard to find any info on this bike. Finally I came across this site and realized what I had! I believe I have a ’96 Homegrown Suspension USA. It has a Bonus Tomato USA sticker on seat stem. It’s painted Bianchi blue though, haven’t seen another like it. Just wanted to post here and share to verify my bike is Homegrown. Now I want to tune it up and start riding again!

    This is what a 1996 Homegrown Factory Suspension looks like:

    Yours has a smaller unified rear triangle pivot and a different unified rear triangle. It resembles a Schwinn 9.Six more:

    It’s definitely a ’95, but could still be a Homegrown. Can’t quite tell if it’s got the asymmetric chainstay that the Homegrown had but the s9.six lacked because of the pedal position. However, the upper shock mount on the OP’s bike looks like it’s got the relief seen on the HG and not the s9.six:
