This has had brand new chain, cassette, chainring, mech pulleys and rear hub bearings put on it today for sale. Spec: Forks - rockshox sektor (solo air revelation internals) Shock - rockshox monarch 4.2 (tuned for the frame kinematics by jtech originally) Wheels - hope pro 2 / mavic EX721 Tyres - maxxis highroller 2.35 front schwalbe nobby nic 2.3 rear Brakes - shimano slx 2 pot 180mm rotors, icetech pads nearly new Cranks - shimano slx Chaindevice - gamut p30 Gears - 1 x 9 sram x9 med cage, 36t front ring (narrow wide) Seat post - Thomson inline 27.2mm (no dropper) Seatclamp - hope QR Saddle - charge spoon Pedals - superstar nano flats Bars - superstar flatland 780mm Stem - truvativ 50mm Grips - odi lock ons Couple of minor points I noticed while doing the drivetrain: gamut roller bearing has seized up, doesn't really affect how it works as chain slides over it just fine, rear shock lower bushing is slightly worn, can't feel or hear anything riding it yet but will want doing eventually. Pretty much ready to ride, no rush to sell, will keep for Mrs to use if no interest, sensible offers only.

UPDATED pics and description 2007-ish (pre-EVO) Orange 224, full bike, frame was cracked and re-welded with some reinforcement in there by some aerospace welders I know through work 4 years ago now and hasn't showed any signs of re-cracking in the 2 years it was used for DH racing before I gave it up. I have completely over-engineered the repair but given the location and the fact it is a repair I am asking a low price. Rear end was new-ish at the time of repair so it's only had about 2 years use compared to the front end. Spec as follows: Medium frame with 150 x 12 mm back end and bolt through axle. Stripped of paint and stickers. Fox DHX RC4 shock - set up for 200lb rider, got this as an upgrade a few months old and used it for one race. 2007/8ish boxer teams - modded internals currently but can re-install old shimstack. Current setup is much smoother than factory however so buyer to specify preference. I'll give you the old shimstack anyway. De-stickered and a bit of uplift scarring to the lowers but stanchions and seals are fine, smooth and don't leak. Brakes are avid ultimate levers with code calipers, brakes work fine and have a lot of power however the bite point adjuster on both levers are broken - adjustments can still be made by poking an allen key into the hole it's just a bit more fiddly than doing it with a knob, I tend to set and forget anyway so never fixed it. Wheels are MTX 31s on nukeproof hubs, wheels were built up in 2007 and have only needed one set of bearings in that time, this was done a few months before the last time I used this bike so plenty of life. There's a bit of a ding in the rear rim which I did on the first day I built the wheels up but as it holds a tire no problem I never got round to replacing. Sunline v1 bars and integrated stem, not sure how wide they are but can measure up if interested, they are going to be a bit less than 760mm though I'd have thought. Raceface Diablous cranks, gamut chainguide (roller needs a bearing but works), SRAM X9 mech, and X7 shifter. few rides old fizik Gobi saddle. Splitting I could get more than the asking price on the rest of it without the frame so I'm not going to go lower, if you want a cheap way into DH this bike is ideal, it runs very smooth and is a lot of fun to ride. Although I have said local pickup/delivery I may be able to make a drop off it you happen to live on my way to somewhere I'm going so worth a message. Bank transfer or cash only please.
