Purchased at the end of 2017, a Champaign colour Cotic Solaris Max in size XL with black Hope headset and Hope seat clamp. Suitable for both 29 and 27+. The bike was a custom build and has done less than 20miles on xc light single track. Unfortunately it is just a bit too big me so I swapped it out for a smaller frame a few weeks after purchase. The frame is almost immaculate, except for 2 very small marks on the chain stay (see pictures) that could just have easily been done during build as much as on a trail. I have applied a little bit of heli tape to sensitive areas. I added some Nukeproof clips to help with cable routing and left some of the cable housing in place as I thought I would potentially swap back if the smaller size wasn't more suitable... but after much thought I am reluctantly selling. Collection from Sevenoaks preferred, or could bring into central London. I could also travel within reason so contact me before buying to discuss possibilities.. Not sure if postage would be a viable option due to size and lack of packing?! I can't speak highly enough of the frame, and really debated keeping it even though a bit too big. Versatile modern geometry, light for a steel frame and more comfortable than Alloy, so great for long (or short) days in the saddle :-)

Price reduce (again) for the easter holiday only!... get it now, as I may end up using the fork once the weather picks up :-) New 2018 Rockshox Pike RCT3 Debonair 29 Boost 140mm. The fork was ordered for a custom build but I am using a fox fork that I already had. The steerer is cut to 214mm so should be more than long enough for most. As it was cut by the shop, I was unable to return for refund (purchased for well over £700). Fork comes with volume spacers and spare decal, star nut already fitted. Also listed on eBay, but want to avoid fees. Collection preferred from Sevenoaks or London area, but can post if required.

2015 Santa Cruz Tallboy 2 - Alloy XL Purchased brand new from authorised dealer on 28/06/2016, and built with all new parts for an event that I didn't take part in. The bike and components are hardly used and all in great condition as I have another bike that is used all the time (hence reason for sale) Bike build as follows: Santa Cruz Tallboy 2 - Alloy XL (full invisiframe fitted) Full XT M8000 2x11 group set (inc brakes) Rockshox revelation 120 fork Rockshox reverb seat post WTB saddle Hope Headset Raceface turbine stem and bar Stans Arch mk3 on Hope pro evo 4 hub Schwalbe nobby nic (tubeless) I may also consider splitting this and selling frame and some parts as can recycle some of the components onto another bike. *pedals not included

I am considering selling my 2016 XL Santa Cruz Bronson CC custom build, as it just doesn't get ridden and I have recently had an operation that is going to keep me on the side lines for a little while. This bike is fantastic. I originally had it built as I wanted to get into a bit more aggressive and technical riding (now that I am in my 40s :) but it has never been used on anything more than XC to light trail.. and as I have an XC bike too, it just doesn't get used enough. Cleaned and lubricated regularly and never crashed. While cleaning recently I went over the bike with a fine tooth comb and can honestly say, the bike is immaculate (in reflection, bike and components will have done less than 100 miles since purchased new from Soho Bikes in London) and I am confident that this is probably the cleanest used example for sale that you will find. Spec as follows: Bronson CC frame with Fox Float X Kashima shock (much better than the RS shock on the 17 in my opinion) Full invisiframe kit installed (even invisiframe great with not so much as cable rub) Fox Float 36 fork Kashima 2017 Boost fit 4 damper 160mm (fork and shock have custom grey decals to match frame) Hope Headset (black) Hope bottom bracker (black) Shimano XT M8000 group set 1x11 (The race face crank in the pictures will be replaced with new XT M8000 for sale) Rock Shox reverb stealth 170mm dropper SDG Bell Air 2.0 Saddle with titanium rails Easton Arc 30 rims (scratch to decal/sticker but no marks on actual rims) running true Hope pro evo 4 hubs (black) Schwable Hans Damf tyres tubeless (still have some of the nobbles on showing how little the bike has been used) Race Face SIXC 35 carbon bars Race Face turbine 35 stem 50mm Oddi grips Looking for a good price or else will probably just keep. Any inspection welcome. Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

With great regret, I am reluctantly considering the sale of my Santa Cruz Tallboy LTc - Size XL - Carbon and Yellow. **This ad is for complete bike** http://www.santacruzbikes.co.uk/tallboy-ltc/ The bike was built by my bike shop in October 2014 and has the Kashima shock upgrade. The frame and components are all in really good condition, frame has been invisiframed from new with rock and mud guards to add extra protection. The bike has only been used for less than 20 short/light XC/trail rides - never raced, never crashed and wasted on me really (my wife thinks it was a mid life crisis :) Complete build as follows: Hope Headset - Black Hope Bottom Bracket - Black Rockshox Reverb Stealth 125 Dropper Post (minor signs of wear on the remote) Rockshox Pike RTC3 150mm travel (tiny stone chip and scratch on the lower - cosmetic only) WTB team i23 rims on Hope pro eve hubs - Black Maxiss High Roler tyres Full XT 2x10 drivetrain XT Brakes with 180 Rotors front and back WTB Saddle I have various stem and bar combinations that could also be fitted to suit your requirements. I have been meticulous about caring for this bike and on inspection, have only managed to find very minor signs of wear on the inside edge of the chain stays that I have tried to shown in the pictures (purely cosmetic and can not really be be seen when the wheel is fitted) and not even any cable rub. I am a fair weather rider and even the invisiframe is in pretty good shape so have not removed. You will do well to find a better example of this amazing bike… Any, and I mean any inspections are more than welcome! (the bike is still fully built at the moment) I would ideally like collection or meet & exchange somewhere (happy to travel within reason) but shipping could be arranged if needed. I also have and ad placed frame only as my preference is to feel frame and some components, and recycle those I can to a more 'family' orientated hardtail. Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Thanks Matt

The bike has probably less than 20 short/light XC/trail rides - never raced, never crashed and wasted on me really (my wife thinks it was a mid life crisis :) Although the ad is for frame only, for the right price I could be persuaded to include some or all of the following components (all purchased new as part of bike build and in very good condition) that are still fitted: Hope Headset - Black Hope Bottom Bracket - Black Rockshox Reverb Stealth 125 Dropper Post (minor signs of wear on the remote) Rockshox Pike RTC3 150mm travel (tiny stone chip and scratch on the lower - cosmetic only) I have stems, bars and saddles that could also be fitted.

I may also place an ad for complete bike but would rather sell frame and some components by preference. Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Thanks Matt
