1993 Rock Lobster

A very clean example of a TIG welded Rock Lobster with the mono-stay rear end.  Parts are relatively common Shimano Deore XT with a Rock Shox fork but the paint is what really separates this one from the bunch.  The Rain Forest Camo paint was applied by  Mark Bunten (AKA Dr. Deltron) and features multi colors with different leaf patterns and a couple of lizards thrown on the frame (in case the Lobster gets hungry?)
