Be aware that you may need to replace a lot of parts - my 1996 Y22 needed a new fork, new rear shock, new front brake, new crankset, new pedals, new saddle,...

In the USA the 1996 Y22 cost $2000 - $2200 depending on where in the country you lived. The rear shock mount issue is a hit or miss problem. You might never...
