Aug 20, 2021Saracen ariel 151 large
$800 GBPUp for grabs is my ariel 151
Been an awesome bike and gutted to be doing this but just not getting the time anymore
Kids and job have reduced my riding time and locations to local and not much so having this travel bike is just too much in my eyes and im feeling stepping towards a slack hardtail.
Good points:
Agile good handling bike with carbon bars
Race matrix brake pads that bite very well!
Sram hydraulic brakes
Sram xo drive train
Wild enduro tyres - tubless
Carbon rear triangle
Rockshox front and rear shocks pike and debonair
Rockshox dropper post
Bad points: (im just being honest)
Frame had a crack repair base of the seat tube/bottom tube where rear shock mounts i have all pics before during and after repair, its been fine since and i have competed on this post repair and never had issues.
Gears are a little bit jumpy time to time could do with an adjust
Rear tyre looses air if left for a day, its tubless and tried sorting but not properly nore have i stripped and rebuilt the wheel so could just be it needs cleaning and re doing….
1 pedal is different to the other, snapped a plastic oedal so replaced but wad not able to remove the other side, again not really tried as not used it much but doesn't stop use of the bike.
Besides that its still riding today id happily take it down a red and black trail at bike park wales no issues and as i said would keep this if i had the time i need to use it but i dont it sits about too much now and gets used very little
Id be keen on a swap for a decent slack hardtail if you have one let me know, as i ride more with the kids now when i can so would be better suited to me
Happy to supply more pics or provide a viewing, test rides ok but only money in hand before so.
Front mud guard not with sale!
Thanks
