Can't believe I am selling this, but its just not getting the use it deserves. I bought this basically brand new about 4 years ago and have ridden it here and there, but really not a ton - I have several other bikes and loved this, but my ti hardtail (Eriksen) and gravel bike (Moots) just got way more use. Its a great climber for a 6" travel bike, but am looking to go more pure XC on my next full-suspension. Only 250 of these were made, and since you can easily look it up for full specs, here are just some notes, including what what I have changed out from the stock setup: - Seat switched out to WTB Silverado Ti - much more comfortable for me than the stock seat - Dropper post that came with it frankly sucked, and the Fox Transfer Factory is the simply the best on the market - MRP chain guide added - Ergon grips, much better than what came with the bike - Maxxis Ardent in the rear - personal choice for the terrain I typically ride - top cap is a 3/4 turn computer mount. I will include it if you want it, along with the original Chris King one Maintenance etc notes: - Fork had a full factory service probably 100 miles ago - Brakes were replaced under warranty - the original run of SRAM RSC Codes were apparently often defective, and mine were no exception - I have the Yeti branded mud guard if you want it (I took it off) - I swapped the original Chris King turquoise headset spacer but will include it with the sale - paint flaked off around rear thru axle and this happened just from tightening the axle down - happened probably a week after I bought the bike, and it is cosmetic only. - a few minor paint chips around bottom bracket but small and cosmetic only - Invisiwrap has seen better days - if you really wanted to, you could probably get it re-wrapped and it would look pristine (as paint condition is overall very good) I weighed it at some point and its just over 27lbs, which is pretty damn good for a bike that's has competed in World Cup DH races. I live in Atlanta, GA, and am happy to meet you somewhere in person if you want to ride it around the block and check it out. Otherwise, will ship from my LBS to you, at your cost, or you can set up packing/shipping as long as its reasonably convenient for me. Cheers Jesse

If you are looking for a lightweight set of carbon 27.5 plus wheels for Superboost (157mm) spacing, you found them. Industry Nine Superboost (157mm) hubs laced to Light-Bicycles 27.5+ carbon hoops, with tires, rotors, cassette, and valve stem, all set up and ready to ride. The wheels and all the parts are cosmetically and functionally nearly new. This was my first foray into plus-size wheels, and I had these built because it was basically my only option to get a super-sweet, lightweight SuperBoost wheelset (I bought an Eriksen frame with that spacing). These wheels were ordered from Light-Bicycles about a year ago and ridden maybe 50 miles, mostly on road and barely enough to get dirty. They are set up with Stan’s sealant – I haven’t ridden them in +/- 6 months and they are still holding air. There really were not any options for this 157mm sizing from ENVE or any other the other high-end wheel manufacturers, so I had these built. Here is a link to the rims: https://www.lightbicycle.com/Hand-built-carbon-AM733-asymmetric-27-5-mtb-Enduro-650B-wheels-tubeless-compatible.html The wheels themselves were about $1300, and the other parts were about $400. These are ready to go – fully setup, nothing to do but ride ‘em. Rims: RM650BC20 AM733 matte UD 28H front, UD 32H rear (stealth, no decals). Front Hub: Industry Nine Torch Classic – 15 x 110mm 28H J-bend Lime Rear Hub: Industry Nine Torch Classic – 12 x 157 Super Boost 32H J-bend Lime 120T Spokes: Sapim CX Ray Black Nipples: Sapim POLYAX Brass Black Cassette: XT cassette – CS-M8000 (11-speed) Rotors: XT IceTech 6-bolt rotors (I think they are 160mm but can check/confirm as needed). Tires: Maxxis REKON 3C/EXO/TR, 2.60 rear and 2.80 front I am in Atlanta, GA, if you are and want to check them out before you buy them. Otherwise, I can meet someone in the ATL area, or ship worldwide, but Buyer to pay actual shipping (FedEx Ground or similar). If you want me to weigh them, I can do so - they are as light as possible while still being functional and strong.
