This bike is truly awesome , a hardtail frame designed & built with a longer travel fork in mind . It's happy doing the standard XC stuff but is really good with more aggressive trail riding also . I was looking to get a new bike earlier in the year but a knee injury in January has meant that I'm not riding as much as I'd like
, that and this is one of two mtb's I currently have . The superb Rockshox Pike forks were given a full service in I think Sept last year by Plush ( Mat Clark , ex fishers Rockshox tech guy ) with all seals replaced , stanchions polished etc etc ( the bike hasn't been used much since ) . At the same time it had a Chris King headset fitted . It had new Sram cassette,bb,chain only about 40 miles ago . It has a brand new rear Continental Baron rear tyre ( Hutchinson Toro Enduro front , both are 2.35 ) . It will come with a spare 1.85 Hutchinson Toro for rear winter use to give extra clearance & 2 sets of new sintered brake pads I have here . It was a custom build from Leisure Lakes Daventry , in April 2010 I paid £1800.00 , want £799.00 . A brief breakdon is as follows:
Medium 18" frame ( I'm 5' 11" with a 32" inside leg ) .
Pike fork
Avid Juicy 5 brakes with sintered pads .
Chris King headest .
Near new Sram bb,cassette,chain .
Mavic rims with Sun Ringle & Formula hubs .
Toro & Baron tyres .
Sram cranks .
Sunline bars .
Intense lockon grips .
Raceface 70mm stem .
Gussett XXL 450mm seatpost .
Fizik Nisene wing flex seat .
Wellgo flats .
Sram X7 shifters , X7 front mech , X9 rear mech .
The workmanship/finishing on this frame is super nice , I'll see if maybe over the weekend I can get more close up pics if the weather is kind to us ! .
PM me for any further info , Cheers
