Here is a 2018 X-Caliber 9 in 15.5". I purchased this bike new in 2018, and took excellent care of it. I sold it a couple years back. I really wanted a nice hardtail again, so I reached out to the buyer last spring to see if he would sell it back to me. He agreed.

Last spring, I gave the bike a really good going over. Installed a like new saddle, installed new Polymer coated Shimano derailleur cables, front and rear ($40), new grips ($20), fixed a couple other issues, and took the bike for a ride. Then it sat. I purchased some more parts for it, to make it like new and to upgrade, but the parts sat, and so did the bike. I much prefer my full suspension bike, as I'm getting older and it doesn't make sense for me to hold onto this race-ready hardtail. I really do like this bike, and I'm struggling with selling it, but I wanted to make it as perfect as I could for the new owner. (or if it doesn't sell, and I end up keeping it)

Besides the new cables, housing and like new saddle and grips installed in spring of last year, I just finished putting a slew of new parts on this.

I just installed:
New - Front and Rear SLX hydraulic brakes (huge upgrade over previous brakes)- $275.00
New - Front and Rear Bontrager XR2 Comp tires (27.5 x 2.2) - $80.00
New - 11 speed XT cassette (upgrade over old SLX) - $105.00
New - 11 speed XT chain (upgrade over old KMC) - $42.00
I also just rebuilt the Rockshox Recon fork with new 50 hour kit (main seals and oil)

There are a few scratches here and there on this bike, but most of the scuffs are in the decals (see pictures). When I did purchase this bike back, I did notice that the non-driveside crank arm is no longer an XT arm, but a Deore arm. This really isn't an issue, as it's the same length, and looks very similar, but the crank is not a matched set. All bearings spin smooth, and like new. Rear derailleur, front derailleur, and crank have been removed, degreased, cleaned and reinstalled. With the new cassette, and chain, this 2x11drivetrain is like new.

I run clipless pedals, so I threw on a half-way decent set of alloy flats to sell with the bike. If I were to buy/keep this bike, the only thing I would change would be the pedals. Otherwise, it's ready to shred.

If shipping, I will take bike to LBC, and buyer pays boxing cost, and coordinates shipping with LBC (14221).
$1,175 USD
