Feb 8, 2026Kavenz vhp 16 v7
$1400 GBPSize Large. Kavenz Vhp16 frame and extras.
V7 rear end with + 10mm dropouts.
480mm reach, 450mm seat tube, 64 head/ 77.5 seat angle. 435mm chainstay (extends 11mm). Takes 160-180mm fork. 170 is 580 axle to crown. Headtube is custom 125mm.
Excellent lightly ridden condition. All (enduro) bearings changed not long back. 6 spare bearings included. Frame uses same 6902 bearing on all pivots. A few small marks on paint but it's super tough powder coat. It's so well built and well thought out that it was really easy to build and set up despite the complicated looking extra chain idler. I used a normal length chain with 30x 46 gearing.
Kavenz uses the same high end alloy for its frames as Nicolai. Kavenz downtube protector rubber and chainstay protector fitted.
Shock is a 210x65 EXT Storia Lok V3. It has 375 and 400 springs for an 80kg rider but damping is tuned for a heavier 110kg rider. I'd recommend buyer sends shock to somewhere like MOJO for a service/ retune depending upon rider weight or heavier EXT springs are readily available on ebay etc. The shock is very nice by the way and works just fine but a retune would get the best out of it.
This is a solid (9lbs ish as show) stiff frame that just ploughs through rocks like nothing I've had before. The virtual pivot takes the edge off square edge hits but the 4 bar design and idler keeps it really neutral feeling as well. The steep seat angle helps make it a surprisingly good climber and I rarely engaged the lockout. At 178cm tall I do feel like it's a bit big for me, especially when tackling tight steep alpine stuff. I think the Kavenz excels on fast, rough long descents. Megavallanche, super enduro etc..
Frame comes with;
Hope headset (new bottom half).
EXT storia lol v3 coil shock, (spare spring, retaining ring, handy btr adjuster tool) documentation.
Kavenz chainguide and Lower bash guard.
Rear boost axle and 203mm brake mount.
77 design seat collar
MX and 29er shock mounts (rear wheel can be 29" or 27.5")
Spare cable inserts, chainguide spacers, Titanium upper shock bolts
Spare UDH gear mech hanger
Rubber noise reducer pipes for internal cables. Gear outer left in. Kavenz stickers and manual.
Price for this lot is very good. Would prefer to sell frame with shock but may split. Payment on collection preferred but could post insured via parcel force.

Jan 7, 2026Cane Creek Kitsuma Air
$250 GBPCane Creek Kitsuma Airshock.
210 x 55
One of the most adjustable shocks available which means it can be tuned to suit most frames and riders.
Air preloaded, Low & High speed compression and rebound, climb/descend lever, Airspring volume spacers fitted and spare included.
In very good condition. Working fine. All adjusters work and move freely. Air holds fine. No scratches on stanchion. Eyelet bushes are fairly new. You'll need spacers to fit whatever frame it's going on.
Unfortunately the large aircan is too tight a fit on the frame I bought it for so I'm selling it on and will have to settle for an inferior shock. I have tried it on a Nukeproof Reactor to make sure it all works well.
Make sure it will fit your frame to avoid my mistake. If you have any questions just ask and I'll do my best to help. Buyer can collect from Holmfirth, West Yorkshire or I can post. Cheers

Aug 25, 2025Knolly Endorphin 18" Large
$750 GBPKnolly Endorphin bike. Custom built.
Size Large but more like a medium these days
465mm reach, 65° head angle. 345 bb height. 122cm wheelbase, 18" ish seat tube. Suit someone under 5 foot 10 ish.
2017 frame. Cane Creek DB air with climb switch. 130mm travel.
Rockshox Pike Rct3 - 160mm travel.
Works components - 2 degree headset. Gives 65degree head angle and steepens seat tube a bit.
Shimano xt/slx 11 speed drive train mix 30 x 11-46. Sunrace cassette. Slx M7000 brakes. Xt spd pedals.
DT swiss wheels, 2.5" Tubeless Maxxis Minions. Tannus tyre insert in rear.
Deity 760mm bars, Spank saddle, Ascend 150mm dropper post. Death grips. Burgtec seat clamp. One up chain guide.
Box of spares including pike tokens, rear shock spacers, frame and chain guide spares.
I've had many an adventure on this bike for a number of years. Built and maintained it myself. Rear shock recently given a full service at TF Tuned. Frame pivot bearings all replaced with enduro bearings, forks given lower leg service, brakes bled, wheel bearings, bb etc all fine. Bike has a fair amount of cosmetic scuffs and chips. Invisiframe looking tatty. Small cosmetic scratch on fork stanchion, shock fine. It's all working fine. The only minor issue is the brake pads might need changing as it's not been used for a few months. Usually a wet/dirty ride will do the job.
To be honest I've kept this bike longer than any other as it's so robust, reliable and fun to ride. Knolly's look a bit odd but they're really good quality and I'm only selling as I wanted a 29er. The suspension design makes it a really efficient climber and a much better descender than the travel would suggest. It quite light too.
I'd prefer to sell as a full bike but would consider selling the just frame.
Collection from Holmfirth, West Yorkshire but I would consider posting too.
