Absolute one-off custom v10 frame-up build. Why so cheap? Kharma. Read on....
I originally built this bike in 2018 from new (old) stock for my son who 12 at the time. Now he's 15, and about 4 inches taller than me - so M bike didn't fit him for long. When I built it up - the Frame, Fork, Shock, Wheels, etc. were all 2014/2015 parts that were new and unused. We kept the bike until 2020 (for my wife - good plan but she didn't use it) - until I sold it to a friend who really wanted to get into DH. Unfortunately COVID hit, he lost his job, and he fell into a bit of financial difficulty... so he's now given the bike back for me and asked me to sell it for what he still owes on it - which is just over 50% of the value.
So - here's the KHARMA part. It's an awesome rig, that is basically new about 1/2 price. I can work with you on boxing and shipping - and I will throw on a BRAND NEW VIVID R2C (about $400 shock) - if you can come in at his (half) price and help him out. He's taking a loss, but he doesn't need the additional headache - and you get a SMOKING DEAL. Win-win.
As I said - she's full custom, and basically barely ridden. Here's the details:
Frame: Santa Cruz V10 version 4, size M. Carbon front triangle, alloy rear. Flip chip from 200 - 255mm of rear travel.
Fork: RockShox Boxxer World Cup - Hi/Lo compression, Hi/Lo rebound and Bottom Out (!)
Shock: RockShox VIVID R2C (brand spankin' new)
Wheels/Hubs: Mavic DeeMax (tubeless and bombproof)
Tires: Minion DHF R: DH casing, F: EXO casing - both nearly new
Drivetrain: 10 speed, Saint rear mech, RaceFace cranks with 30T NW ring, new KMC X10 chain
Headset: Cane Creek Forty (new)
Stem: Loaded direct mount in ano blue (new)
Bottom Bracket: Saint
Brakes: Brand new ano purple HOPE Tech 3 levers with MONO 6 Ti calipers - that's right 6 pistons! Even has Hope steel hose upgrade! Hope 185mm in back, 203mm in front. Brakes alone are worth $600!
Grips: ODI Rogue with ano red lock rings
Bars: RaceFace ATLAS Freeride in ano purple
Bash/Guide: Truvativ - good to 38T
Saddle: Chromag Overture (new)
Pedals: CycleTrak platform in ano blue
Please let me know if any questions - can send some more pics if there is anything specific you want to see. She's fully ready and in awesome condition. I added some pics showing just how new the frame condition is - it even still has the Santa Cruz QC stickers on it by the serial number. Remember, Santa Cruz has lifetime support and warranties too.
Needs to go to a good home, and helps a guy out who's having a tough time right now (like many of us). Smoking deal - no gotchas - real thing. No lowball offers please - it's already there, and that isn't what this is about.
Best,
Rob
