This is a bicycle I purchased when living with my family. My father saved the serial number along with the paperwork. I believe it was a Sedona or Iguana. The Model Number is 00-93-276, but Giant didn't preserve details about older edition products on their website. I wasn't able to view a product catalog online. This bicycle was stolen once and recovered in-town. Then it was stolen again in Buffalo, NY around 1996 or 1997. Adding to the registry, in case it surfaces.

- Description of incident
-
One evening, I was visiting my friend in this neighborhood. It was late at night and it was raining rather heavily at the time I arrived. Maybe I was only staying for a half hour or so, so I stashed the bike behind his house against the house, which requires access to the driveway to get to. (Fences in each backyard.) There might have been a U-Lock mounted on the bike at the time it was stolen. We filed a police report in 1996 (or 1997) whenever this incident happened. I don't have the number on hand. I'm not sure that they had access to this serial number at the time. I searched this site and it was not recorded. Proof of ownership. I have the vintage owners' manual with the serial # recorded upon it.
Cargo
- Rack
- Black rear rack. Believe each side was comprised of 2-3 alloy firm tubes that came together down by the hub. The rack had a spring loaded brace for storage of items on the rack. Additional bungie cables were once used.
Additional Parts
- Toe Clips
- Had plastic toe clips with tension straps attached to the pedals at one point. Each pedal had one reflector removed. Screw on pedal reflector type.
