For sale is a Solid Blade, 26" enduro/ all mountain build:

One of the fore-runners of the enduro/ big mountain bike market is the Solid Blade which in 2008 saw 3 out of the top 10 Mega-Avalanche finishers riding this bike to glory. This build has plenty of life in it and is still ripping! the clear laquer has marks in it on the top tube and there are plenty of scratches but since the frame is polished aluminum it still looks great! ( see photos) There are no dings or dents and there are no problems with the bikes function. The fork is well reviewed and plush as it always was and has plenty of adjustability. The shock is fit-and-forget it just works well. As do the brakes - they just keep on delivering the power.

I don't believe in selling something which is not going to work how it should and have spent a long time making sure the bikes up to standard to sell - to the standard I would expect if I bought it.
As such:
I have installed new bearings in rear triangle, I serviced the air can on the rear shock, I had the wheels trued and tightened, I bled the front brake as the rear was fine and installed new sintered pads front and rear for the sale, I put in 2 new inner tubes, I serviced the pedals and put in new pins, I checked the chain/ cassette for wear but it has under 100 miles use and around than 0.3% wear, and I put on Continental tyres which have under 50 miles use. I would expect this bike therefore to run well right away without any tinkering needed besides suspension sag set up and I have the adapters for the fork.
