2019 Intense M29 DH Fox/Saint/SC Reserve

Selling my 4-month-old carbon Intense M29 DH bike! It has new tires, brake pads, and has been wrapped in protective tape since the day I got the frame.

I built the bike up from the frame at the end of June, with a fully custom component selection that I have been nothing but happy with. It’s basically a full Shimano SAINT build with SC Reserve DH rims laced to Hope hubs, wrapped in CushCore. This is by far the fastest bike I've ever ridden, the 29" wheels matched with this much travel makes the most intimidating DH trails a bit less scary, until you start rolling even faster than you expected over the rough stuff. Then it gets scary again. ;)

Size large, I'm just a hair under 6' but this will fit riders from ~ 5'10"-6'4". The reach isn’t super long so smaller riders may still feel comfortable.

This bike has been ridden, but has also been cared for and had consistent maintenance. It also just had a full rebuild/tuneup including the following work done to the bike so you get a fresh whip that’s really to roll:
Hand laced wheels built with DT Swiss Competition spokes, Hope Pro 4 Evo hubs, and Santa Cruz Reserve DH carbon rims.
New tires: WTB Verdict and Judge, both Tough/High Grip
New Shimano Saint Brake Pads
Brake bleeds front and rear

The frame has a few scratches and paint chips from normal use (bike racks and shuttling in a truck, primarily). I can send detailed photos of blemishes upon request. The frame and all components are structurally sound, and the wheels spin true and are evenly tensioned.
