GoldenTurquoise

Steerer tube 200mm. Cosmetically there are quite a few scratches etc. Mechanically they are excellent. There are some small stanchion scratches (see photos). A tiny pinprick on the left leg and three larger scratches on the right stanchion. The scratches are not deep enough to cause any seal problems. These forks were awesome from the day I fitted them! I improved my downhill PRs on literally my first ride on them. The paint is not very hard wearing, especially on the crown (loads of cable rub). I had them serviced in Spring 2015 and since then I have done mostly road riding, hence the sale. I am now more road and lightweight XC so these are overkill for me. The forks would suit a Yeti owner as I have replaced the stickers with some Yeti themed ones from Slik Graphics. I can't remember how many air tuning chips are fitted (2 I think...) I will answer all sensible questions and may accept a sensible offer. If the asking price is met, it includes shipping via courier.

I've owned this frame from new. Last August I had a replacement front triangle under warranty and decided to get the new front end Invisiframe taped (There are a couple of blemishes in the tape as can be seen in the pics). The front triangle has had only about 5 rides and there is literally only one or two very tiny stone chips on the untaped areas (There is a small scratch on the seatmast area from before I taped it). The front triangle will actually take a carbon or aluminium rear triangle as the documentation that came with the new triangle said. The rear triangle is original and although a bit scuffed here and there is 100% ok structurally. I was thinking of getting the rear triangle repainted but I spent the money on upgrading my road bike! The shock has been serviced within the last 12 months and is 100% ok. In the photos you can see a little bit of anodising rubbed off the dogbone. This is from the brake hose as it routes through. I did a basic bearing service last month and only one needed replacing. The main pivot was greased, oiled and is as good as new (new main bearing came with the new front triangle). I have done a lot of miles on this bike and will be sorry to see it go but my biking has changed to more xc and road and I've ridden it only a handful of times since last August. The trails I ride are mostly rocky and there is almost no mud (plus I tend not to go out in wet weather!) hence the frame has excellent moving parts but there is a lot of paint wear in the rear swingarm which is mainly from stones being carried through by big tyres. I can pretty much guarantee that this bike has not been jumped! I'm no daredevil. If the Yeti ASRc had been available in 2013 I would have bought one of those instead. But I wanted a 29er FS Yeti so this was the only bike available! I'm a Yeti fan so I wouldn't be happy riding anything else. I have tried to be honest about this frame. If there are any questions please ask. I will accept sensible offers. Shipping (extra) can be arranged depending on location etc. EDIT: I will consider trades. I am after a Yeti Big Top or Arc 29er. I may consider a high end carbon road frame (58cms to 62cms) and wheels.
