Apr 19, 2024Cube Cross Race SL
$300 GBPFor sale is my 2016 Cube Cross race SL, which I purchased from the original owner in 2019. During covid I used the bike roughly twice a week and since the roads returned to normal it's only been used a handful of times in the last few years. It had one service in the time I've owned it as well as a replacement set of BB bearings in 2021.
Everything is working as it should on the bike, but it could do with a new chain as the checker is showing its worn which can make it stubborn when shifting into the largest gear. Rest of the bike has the odd few cosmetic marks as to be expected with a bike of this age. Would make an ideal bike for someone wanting to start/return to the sport without needing to spend a huge chunk of money. I will supply a couple of pairs of gravel tyres in 2 different widths, as well as the road tyres that are currently on there. Spec list is shown below:
I welcome anyone who wants to take a look at the bike first to come and view it, I would ship this within the UK at the buyers expense if that was preferred.

May 2, 2021Saracen Ariel Elite 150
$1250 GBPFor sale is my friends 2016 Ariel elite, which he has owned for a number of years and has been put to good use during this time. It was last used on a biking holiday in 2018 after which it has been in dry storage. The suspension and brakes were serviced before the holiday in 2018, and since it has come out of storage it has had the brakes and drivetrain serviced again this month. There is plenty of meat left on the tyres so it is suitable for use all through the summer! The spec has been slightly customised from standard with a bit more of a focus on downhill/aggresive riding, with beefier brakes and tyres than it originally came with.
The frame does have cosmetic wear and tear on it, which is to be expected for a bike of this age, but overall mechanically this bike is in great condition. There are no marks on the forks or reat shock stanchions, and the dropper post still actuates without any issues. I have tried to show as much of this as possible in the photos, but if you want additional ones of particular areas these can be made available on request.
Like I mentioned, I am selling this on behalf of a friend but I have the bike in my possesion so am able to answer any specific questions you might have about it.

Mar 2, 2019Transition Patrol Large - Custom Build
$1450 GBPFor sale is my Transition Patrol which I have sadly not been getting much use out of recently, so I have decided to sell up for the time being.
This bike is in great condition overall, as you would expect from a trail bike that has been ridden regularly for 2.5 years it has some cosmetic damage to the paint and I have tried to capture the worst bits in the photos. The stanchions front and rear are free from any marks or dents, the dropper seatpost has a small nick near the very top of the travel which I put on accidentally in 2017, but there has been no issues with its operation since and still performs flawlessly. Drive side crank arm has the usual battle scars on the bottom as it has been on there since the bike was new, non drive side is almost as new as it was replaced last year. The pedals are well used and would probably benefit from a service kit from DMR, they still work absolutely fine and have served me well since 2015.
I bought the bike brand new in May 2016 from my local bike shop (Twelve50Bikes in Frodsham), and since then it has always had its servicing and maintenance carried out by them, I have some of the receipts still to prove the suspension servicing. It was a custom build based on the frame set and my preference for Shimano and Hope parts which cost £3550 new and had the Rockguardz downtube protector fitted to it within the first week
I last used the bike for a week in France last June and it has been stored inside the house unused since then. Just before I went abroad with it, the bike was fitted with a new cassette, chain, non drive side crank arm, bottom bracket and the rear shock seals were replaced. The tyres fitted have good life left in them and are the super tacky compound so they have amazing grip at the cost of a shorter lifespan I would estimate these will last the summer this year depending on how much you ride.
Potential buyers are welcome to come and view the bike to see for themselves the condition, I have tried to be as honest as possible with the ad and pictures to avoid wasting time. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me on here and I will usually get back to you within a couple of hours. Local pickup would be preferred however, buyer can arrange shipping at their own cost if pickup is not an option.

Oct 5, 2017Santa Cruz V10C
$3100 GBPFor sale is my V10C which I have sadly not been getting much use out of recently, so I have decided to sell up for the time being.
This bike is in great condition overall, it has been fully shack wrapped from new however the wrap itself has some cosmetic marks from use, the chain device is slightly damaged (but still works fine). Everywhere else on the bike is absolutely mint and it has been specced up to be as light as possible whilst still retaining durability. The bike had new frame bearings installed by a professional shop back in July and has not been ridden since, the tyres both have plenty of life in them as they were only installed at the beginning of summer. This bike is a serious bit of kit and anyone who is thinking about taking up DH seriously will not regret choosing a V10!
Potential buyers are welcome to come and view the bike to see for themselves the condition, I have tried to be as honest as possible with the ad and pictures to avoid wasting time. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me on here and I will usually get back to you within a couple of hours.
