ParticipantWhat is that on the tube near the S10 decal? A hole?

ParticipantIt sounds like you’ve put this bike through it’s paces and it still works like new. That should tell you a little about the quality of this bike. Nothing lasts forever, but I still say keep the homegrown. It’s proven itself and I think it can handle the extra weight.
There is a big following for these bikes, but honestly, you won’t make much money from selling it. Not nearly enough to buy anything comparable.

ParticipantA couple years ago I bought a ’97 Homegrown lxt, tomato red, complete bike for around $300, but why buy a new bike? Keep the homegrown! The homegrown frame is great. Throw on some new components where you want or need them and enjoy the bike you have. It will cost a lot more to find a comparable ride.

ParticipantScott,
Which one are you looking at? What do you need?

Yeah, I really like the bike. I was looking for a nice ChroMoly bike/frame at the time but couldn’t pass up the homegrown for that price. Good luck with the ’98 build.

ParticipantI bought a ’97 Homegrown LXT last fall for $300. 19″, Killer Tomato Red with minor scratches. Hope this helps.
