Answer 1

It is NOT a mountain bike! It is a folding bike with cheap front suspension and disc brakes.

Someone put a decent rear derailleur on a terrible bike. Hummer did NOT build or design the bike. The name was licensed to Montague for a share in royalties. With the exception of the rear derailleur all the parts are pretty much entry level.

The model is a standard product sold by a Chinese manufacturer for under $200 in container quantities. They are happy to paint and decal it to your desires. Take a little time and search http://made-in-china.com and search for folding bicycle.

The "Military Spec" they speak of is a trademark and has nothing to do with actual military quality. Don't be deceived by the fancy names or designations.

Answer 2

I have now!

Not before, but it looks nice.

I can't really buy it (or anything else, really) right now though, since I'm leaving for college and have a bike already...
