Testing the water here and I am a bit reluctant to sell but I'm considering selling my much loved custom Transition Bottlerocket (08) in British Racing Green, to fund a new build. I've had it for the past 3 1/2 years and it has done me proud. There are signs of use, as you would expect, but parts of the frame, forks and cranks have been heli-taped.

08 Bottlerocket Frame (New bearings sub 6 months ago)
Rockshox Totem (will need new seals soon but not a costly job)
Fox DHX 5.0 Shock
Shimano Saint Cranks + BB
E13 Lg1 Guide
Spank Spike Pedals
Raceface D2 Stem
Raceface Atlas Bars
SLX Brakes (Just had new pads)
203mm Icetech rotors
Custom MTX Camo Rims (Sprayed blue around a year ago) on Hope Pro 2 Hubs. Front 20mm Maxle, Rear Bolt up.
Charge Saddle
Thomson Post
Hope Seatclamp
Superstar Headset
Blue Blackspire Chainring + Bolts
Schwalbe Muddy Mary's
SRAM PG150 Chain (just gone on)
8 spd SRAM Cassete
X9 Mech and shifter
Blue Pivot bolts direct from Transition

It had a completely new freehub body a few months back, but i'd still I'd recommend a Rear hub service as well as a bit of rear wheel truing.
*Does have offset bushings in the frame* This makes the shock occasionally rub on the shock mount, and has caused rubbing, sub 0.5mm of damage, 10 minutes of filing would sort this. If not, take the offset bushings out.

Aside this the bike is running smooth, fine and great fun to ride. Pedals REALLY well considering the build I've had on it. I've hit DH tracks such an Innerleithen, 30ft gaps, and AM loops on it no problem. Can pretty much handle anything and can be set up to tackle anything.

I'd consider offers in the region of 1300.
I'd much prefer pickup or meeting the buyer somewhere for cash in hand rather than courier.

*Will upload some more pictures soon as*

Could maybe do a deal on just frame, or just frame and forks.

PM me if you are interested.
Cheers
Tom
