Jun 3, 2015Ghost AMR+ Lector 9000
$400 GBPThis is my Ghost AMR+ frame which makes for a fantastic all mountain and enduro rig. It will fit riders from about 5'9" to 5'11".
Fitted with a 150mm fork the bike climbs amazingly and handles fast rolling technical trails with ease. This frame was also used by Ghost as the base for their Cagua FR bikes so it can handle a longer fork and in that set up will happily handle full on enduro and mini DH trails with ease. It has recently had a brand new Rockshox Monarch RT3, rapid recovery shock fitted which has hugely increased small bump compliance and grip and overall suspension performance. The frame comes fitted with a Nukeproof Warhead IE49TS Headset, Shimano Pressfit BB and DT Swiss X-2 thru axle.
Ghost AMR+ Lector 9000 frame. 48cm
Carbon front triangle with alloy rocker, seat and chainstays.
Rockshox Monarch Plus RT3, 2014
Headtube: 49mm/1.5" Headset fitted. Nukeproof Warhead 49IETS 1.5" to 1 1/8th tapered.
BB: Pressfit: Shimano BB fitted.
Seat Tube: 34.9mm with shim to 31.6mm
Front Mech E-type fitting
ISCG 05 tabs
Fits forks: 150-170mm
This is a fantastic frame that climbs and descends exceptionally well. Here's what Dirt thought of the bike. a href=http://dirtmountainbike.com/products/dirt-100/2013-dirt-100-ghost-amr-plus-lector-9000.html#86ieTMXi07hHm6CX.97 target=_blank> b>Dirt Review/b>/a>
There are some small patches of cable rub and a few paint chips on the alloy seat stay and rocker. I will be happy to take close up photos on request.

Feb 24, 2013NS Suburban 26", Long
$300 GBPThis is my fantastic custom build NS Suburban. I have hardly used it in the last few years as I have been concentrating on different riding types. The bike has been exceptionally well maintained and although it has a few minor scuffs and the odd scrape it is in brilliant condition. The suburban frame is an amazing ride, it manuals forever and has a ridiculous amount of pop over the jumps. It is a real shame to be selling a great bike but as I haven't used it for so long it deserves a new home.
Here's the spec.

Manitou Stance Forks, 80mm Travel, QR
FSA Pig Pro Headset
Gusset Slim Jim Pedals
Easton EA70 Bars and Thomson X4 50mm Stem
