Apr 27, 2019Reverb rebuild parts
$45 CADHave a few parts for rebuilding Rockshox Reverb dropper posts. Ordered them and realized I'd ordered the wrong seal kit. Ended up ordering a full service kit so don't need the top cap or IFP either. Parts are as follows:
Basic sealkit for A1/A2 non-stealth models - $10
IFP (fits all models) - $10
Topcap (fits all models) - $30
Part numbers are shown for all three in the photo.
Note that although the Topcap says "B1", if you check SRAM's part catalog, all posts use the same top cap.

Aug 15, 2014Fox 32 Talas RL 120-150mm
$350 CADI have a Fox 32 Talas RL fork for sale. The fork came with my 2012 Scott Genius that I purchased in 2013. It has only seen one season of riding and is in great shape. The only damage is some typical scuffs and paint scratching on the lower legs. The sliders are in perfect condition. The headtube is 1 1/8" in diameter and 8 1/8" long. The fork fits 26" wheels and has standard quick release dropouts. It is travel adjustable between 120mm and 150mm via the switch on the top of the right leg.
There is a remote lockout, however, I don't have a remote to offer that will operate it (I need the remote that came with it as it operates the rear suspension lockout on my bike). A remote lockout lever can be found on ebay or I can remove the cable if you prefer.

May 18, 2014Marin Rift Zone - many new parts, 2x10 drivetrain, Fox susp
$1100 CADI have a 2007 Marin Rift zone for sale. The frame size is Large (approximately 19") and the wheels are 26". The suspension has been rebuilt by Phat Moose Cycles this spring and works flawlessly. The frame is of very high quality triple butted aluminum and rides very smoothly. The reason I'm selling is I bought a larger travel bike. However, with 120mm of front and back travel, this bike is more than capable for riding almost any Ottawa area trail.
The following parts are brand new as they were taken off my new bike:
-Scott handlebar, stem, and seat
-Alex rims xc-55 wheelset with shimano deore hubs
-Avid Elixer 3 brakes .
-Schwalbe nobby nic tires 2.25"
-Shimano SLX cassette
The following parts were used for one year on my new bike and then swapped to the Marin, they are in great shape:
-Shimano XT 10 speed rear derailleur
-Shimano 10 speed chain
-Shimano 10 speed crankset
-Shimano 10 speed Deore right shifter
Previously upgraded parts:
-Red Straitline bash guard
-FSA Orbit headset (mint condition, great headset)
Can come with either DMR V8 platform pedals or Shimano SPD clipless pedals.
Price: $1100 obo

2011 Norco Bikes Launch - Arrival Day
O woww a norco dj bike without a heinously ugly colour scheme! The 250 may be pretty plain but I'm just hoping the trend continues a bit with their other similar bikes. Norco has really overdone the colours in recent years but these are looking great!
However, the holes in the bottom rear end of the rear triangles are worrying... Reminds me of the DH and FR bikes that had a hole behind the headtube that had to be recalled. Really hope such a thing doesn't happen with these.
