TR250 Large

$950 USD
Selling my 2011 TR250 size large. Bike has been well-cared for and has not seen a mountain in the last 3 years. I moved to a place that doesn’t have DH trails, and have come to the sad conclusion that this bike is no longer needed. I have been taking the bike for a stroll around the neighborhood a couple times a year to make sure that everything is in working order. This bike has been well-maintained, and the overall condition is very good. There is a small dent in the downtube, as shown in the pictures. The tires will likely need to be replaced in the next 1-2 years. Components * Fork: Fox Vanilla 36 * Shock: Fox DHX RC4 * Wheels: Revolution 32 * Tires: Maxxis Minion DHF * Brakes: Avid Elixir CR * Crankset: Truvativ Descendant * Chain Guide: eThirteen LG1 * Rear Derailleur: SRAM X9 * Shifter: SRAM X9 * Cassette: SRAM PG950 11-26 * Stem: Transition * Bars: Kore Torsion 800mm * Seatpost: Thomson Elite Frame Specs http://www.transitionbikes.com/BlogImages/2011_TR250HangTag.pdf Since I don’t expect to sell the bike locally, I will cover shipping costs to the US.

The problem is that there are so many different combinations of things that could be done for drivetrain setup. I don't want to bash the bike industry because that's a very though business to be in, but it can be very frustrating from a consumer's standpoint. It's highly unlikely that there will ever be a de facto standard for DH drivetrains, but it could be worse: http://sheldonbrown.com/nanodrive/index.html

Yeti AS-R 5 Carbon Review
You're right, there are only 3 pivot points which would mean a static frame. But, they designed the rear triangle to flex just enough to eliminate the need for the pivot point by the rear axle. Not a new concept to frame design, Trek used to do it with the fuels back in ~2003. The article also explains this in the paragraph right above the geometry picture, but I don't blame you for not reading the entire thing.

Obviously a marketing gimmick. If this was actually valuable to the design process, it wouldn't be made public.

They also did an incredibly poor job routing the rear brake housing. You can see in the bottom of the 4th pic that they used a zip tie through a zip tie around the clamp bolt for the single pivot. Seriously??? It also looks like the brake housing was rubbing on the linkage (where the paint is scraped away) and they put electrical tape around the housing to "fix" the issue.
