Hey,

Just wanted to share this with you. I found this picture, it was taken at the Mammoth Kamikazee Dowhill race in California in 1991.

It's a Trimble frame.

my buddy tricked out an 2006 trimble 29r. super light bicycle. last time i saw it he was having trouble with high speed shimmy/stability, and was planning to change up the componentry.

Yeah, definitely a Trimble with the top part of the seat tube removed or just never had it...
2006 Trimble? When did they get back in business?
