!!PRICE IS OBO!!! THE BIKE IS CURRENTLY IN DURANGO COLORADO, FOR THE RIGHT PRICE I MIGHT SHIP IT, AND IT WILL BE COMING TO THE DENVER COLORADO AREA AT THE END OF JANUARY, POSSIBLY SOONER. PAYPAL OR CASH ONLY.so i have a 2005 DHi MEDIUM. overall it's in really good condition. typical to above average condition for a 2005. frame has absolutely no cracks or dents. i bought it new in december of 2005 after the snow had fallen so it wasn't ridden until spring of 2006. i rode it probably 5 times that summer (when i weighed about 135 lbs) then i rode it frequently for the 2007 and 2008 seasons (definitely the huge majority of it's rides were those two summers). then i rode it a bit (maybe 10-12 days) the 2009 summer and 3 days this last summer. so it doesn't have all that much time on it considering. the fork has a small scratch on the right stanchion that i will be honest, it does effect the seals, and it needs new seals at this time. i sanded the scratch down a bit, but if you worked it down carefully with a few different sand papers you could probably get it to where it won't go through seals any more than once or twice a season (unless you're a racer, but let's be honest if you're a hardcore DH racer you're probably not buying used bikes). or of course you can get a new stanchion from Marzocchi. also, it needs a spoke or two in the back wheel and both could use a true. but other than that it's ready to ride and really in pretty good shape. the pics are before the scratch to the fork happened (i'll try and get pics of it) but beside having a now lightly used x7 shifter it is as shown. so, if you're looking for a used DH rig and have about a grand to spend this would be a great way to go. it's been a GREAT bike for me, super maintenance free. the only reason i'm selling it is because i haven't ridden much these past couple summers due to obligations and won't be riding hardly at all this upcoming summer because i've been on the couch with a broken foot for the last 4 months and am about to get back on my feet and i need the money much more than the bike since i won't be allowed to ride this summer. --- and i'd like to point out that all of the big hit's, norco's, and stinkys and stabs that are going for this price (even if they are in a bit better shape) just really aren't as good or as cool of bikes. it will pedal better, be more versatile, and is much stronger ---
