I already have some Serotta MTB's
now I am looking for special one: An Serotta TiMax dual suspension
I found this picture in a '95 cataloge

Is there someone on here who could tell me more about this bike?
Was it in production or am I focussing on a never to be found custom?

Run, and run away fast from that Amp-inspired rear.

That was the only one made. I designed and helped build that bike for employee and racer Greg Jackson. It had an AMP rear end and frankly wasn't very good.

I have no idea whatever happened with that one off.

Just stumbled on to this old post. I bought the bike with two different AMP rearends from Greg back in 2000ish(he painted it a pearl white) and sold it a couple of years later to a Wendy Gaylord who I reached out to about it a couple years ago. She said she would see if it was still at their camp in the Adirondacks. But never heard back. Was a really cool bike, but greg is like 4 foot tall so sizing was rough.
