Rocking an Ac1 now. Full XT/XTR. Fox Floats front and rear at to 5”. Love the bike, but want a dropper post. What’s everyone recommend?

KS Lev has a nice one with external routing that starts as the base of the seat post...this way you don't have all that extra cable floating around back by your rear tire as with cables that go to the top of the seat post.

Hi people I'v got an old AC1 that I just took all the dust off from sleeping in tha garage and I'd like to sell it
I don't know what price to put on it so I need some advice if anyone could help me I'd appreciate
The bike is in good condition and I don't want to get ripped off... I want to put a fair price on it

I took a look at your bike. $350-$450 US is what I would suggest. Its a decent "value" bike for a new-be to use at the park. Cheers

Maybe contact Giant. We've looked for that in the past but I don't think its in the pages of this thread.
Let us know once you find out. Cheers

Just this one, sold my old one to build my DB scapegoat. However, I convinced a buddy to pick up a XTC AC1 three weeks ago, his first bike, and his been restoring it to a nice build.

Anyone know where to source parts for these old AC's? I have a 2001 AC XTC AIR and the Main Linkage Pivot bolt is broken. I guess it not really a bolt, but the head on one of the halfs was stripped out (allen key slot was rounded out) and now the head broke off.

Also, has anyone rebuilt the rear shock (factory RockShox shock). My negative air chamber doesn't hold pressure.
