If you are looking for the ultimate freeride, bike park rig, this is it. I do not own a trail bike, which attests to how much fun this bike is. This bike is responsive, poppy, easy to maneuver, and a machine on the downhills. The asymmetrical frame combined with a vivid air makes for one of the best feeling frames I have ever ridden; it holds incredibly well in corners, is planted in chunky sections, and is easy to get off the ground on side hits and trail gaps. Likewise, the all black is too steeze to pass up. The bike alone makes you look better than you really are at riding.

As for the condition of the bike. The frame is in good condition. There is no incredible damage to the front triangle, which is carbon, though the chainstay, which is alloy, has a small dent. I recently serviced the fork and put new seals on it and it rides great, though it does have a large scratch on the damping side. This scratch does NOT affect the integrity of the fork at all and oil does NOT leak. It simply is not very pretty to look at. Fortunately a new stanchion is only a hundred dollars or so, so if you really wanted to fix it it wouldn't be too bad. Everything else on the bike is cherry. The shock is in perfect condition, the back wheel was just tuned and trued, the brakes just bled, both brake pads were replaced, and the drive train shifts like a dream.

I clean this bike often, store it indoors, and take very good care of it, it is my baby and I love it. It is tough to part ways with it, but I need the money. I know that whoever picks up this bike will love it as much if not more than I do. So if you wanna ride like Matty Miles, Dylan Dunkerton, or the whole Coastal Crew, this is the bike for you.
