Nov 24, 2023Polygon Siskiu T8 Small
$1250 GBPHi all,
For sale today is wife's Polygon Siskiu T8 in Small.
Purchased just over a year. Great looking bike with some age related marks as expected from used mountain bike.
Plenty love for this bike online.
Amazing value for money with great specification. Quite a long and slack bike for a trail bike.
It proven great on the big climbs with ability to stiffen up suspension and it descended like a beast curtesy to Fox suspension.
Handlebars have been cut down by 20mm (to 760mm if memory serves).
RRP is £2k at present.
Bike is mostly stock parts but comes with cheap pedals.
Local meetup for collection from Bristol would be ideal but we travel to Forest of Dean and South Wales a fair bit if that's more convenient.
Good bits:
- We had wheels rebuilt by Sterlands in Bristol as Siskius suffered from fragile spoke nipples at a cost of around £200 inc. tubeless conversion.
- Wheels are set up tubeless by the shop
- Frame is protected by Full Monty adhesive from HKT Protect
- Brake pads from Uber Bike Components with plenty bite and life left in them.
- Upgraded to QR front wheel axle from Brand-X
Bad bits:
- Cockpit has some scratches from minor offs at the trail center (see pictures) - handlebars and brake reservoirs.
- Chain is 12 months old so could do with a new one.
- Dropper post leaver is a bit stiff - changed cable in it a few months ago.
