KHS Lucky 7 Contest
Don't ask me why but I've always wanted a KHS Witch Doctor and have tried finding a frame for years now with no luck. Despite all the people that bith and whine about KHS's bikes, I like em. Are they cutting edge or do they have the best components? Nope. I think they do offer good frames with full component sets though that are worthy of upgrading.

Dec 24, 2012Dawes Bullseye 1x9
$400 USDI am selling my 2012 Dawes Bullseye XL ( 21" ) that has many upgrades including being upgraded to a 1x9. I do have about 2,500 miles on the bike and it could probably stand to have the wheel bearings and headset re-greased. Every weekend since I purchased the bike I cleaned the entire bike including taking the time to carefully clean every tooth of the chain-ring and cassette and flossing between the sprockets before lubing and wiping down the drive-train.
There is one ever so tiny issue with the bikes saddle, I racked myself when I was switching the playlist on my MP3 player while moving and accidentally ate a pothole and the rails at the front of the saddle are very slightly bent. Outside of that, wear is about average for a commuter with 2,500 miles on it.
Here are the upgrades I have installed on the bike thus far making it a rock solid commuter.
Odi rogue lock on grips $24
Avid speed dial 7 brake levers $28
Sram X9 shifter $50
Sram X9 short cage rear derailleur $77
Sram pc-971 chain $18
Sram pg-950 11-34t 9-speed cassette $28
Race-Face 36t single-ring $20
Pair of Specialized Manta Cages $12/ea
New GEAX Evolution front tire $28
New Serfa Drifter rear tire $30
No-Flats tire liners $20
Pair of Sun-Lite thorn resistant tubes with a spare $12/ea
Stans No-Tube sealant ( bottle with remainder is included ) $20
The bike itself is $400 at bikesdirect and with the $412 in upgrades, I think this is a fair deal.
For $50 more I can include a brand new Sunbeam QRS Commuter Beam rack ( waiting to get the replacement back from my LBS ), Kryptonite Kryptolok Series 2 U-Lock/ 4' Kryptoflex Cable combo, Park Tools Mini Pump MP-4 Park Tools MTB-7 and 15mm wrench for the wheels.
For $450, it's a nice way to start a 29er addiction :)
As far as trades go, here is what I am interested in at the moment:
Am2+ or AM3 Quad-Core CPU: no original 9xxx series Phenoms unless it's the 95w Phenom 9850
