Sep 18, 2017On One Carbon Whippet Mountain Bike
$500 GBPAttention, serious bikers only.
This bike is astonishingly light and incredibly stiff. It's the best climber I have ever riden and really really fast through the singletrack. A very technical bike.
I remember the first time I rode it and thought bloody hell! It's just awesome. It's been properly cleaned and regreased after every ride and very well looked after. Not many of these around now, so if you're after a bike to cane your mates on the climbs and plough through the South Downs or want to race competitively on, this is the bike for you. House move forces sale.
On One Carbon Whippet hardtail mountain bike. White frame with black detail. Rockshox Reba lockout forks with motion control . Sram X-9 gearset. Avid Elixir CR disc brakes. Stans tubeless rims with Stans 3.30 hubs. On One seatpost and bars, with Planet X stem.
Size medium.

May 30, 2014Dialled Bikes: Alpine. Steel Hardtail All Mountain Bike
$1000 GBPI am selling my gorgeous Dialled Bikes: Alpine build, in Kawasaki Green 18" / Medium.
The frame is from Dialled Bikes http://www.dialledbikes.com/products/mtb/alpine.php
Dialled Bikes is a UK frame manufacturer, which offers frames to beat rivals companies Cotic and Ragley, with their selection of steel hardtail frames.
The Alpine is their All Mountain frame, which is made from Reynolds 853 steel.
I built this bike myself, so it is absolutely unique. There isn't another one like it on the planet. The build came in at just over £2000 in summer 2010.
It has been thoroughly cleaned, degreased and regreased after every build and has been very well looked after. There is the odd mark on the frame and forks, which I have tried to show in the photos, but there are no dents anywhere on the bike. It has never been jumped, or ridden for anything more than XC. However, being steel makes it literally bulletproof.
I have ridden this bike on the South and North Downs and down at Afan, and it is so sweet. It keeps up with the best full sussers I have ridden, and because its steel, gives so much feedback to the rider.
If you're a hardtail aficianado, then you will just love this bike. The combination of components makes this thing fly down hills, but is still amazing at climbing. The forks are arguably the best Rockshox have ever made and with the 20mm Maxle, are just phenomenal! I had them serviced by Fisher (UK distributor) in 2012, and they've had two rides since.
The frame has mountings for an ISCG chain device, so if you want a full all mountain machine, its easy to add.
This bike is on sale elsewhere, so grab it while you can as it will go quickly.
Collection in person welcome.
Happy bidding.

Dec 28, 2009AM Kona Coilair Frame, Fox DHX 5.0 Shock & Marzocchi 55A
$600 GBP2006 Kona Coilair 17" Men's Mountain Bike Frame, Fox DHX 5.0 Air Shock & Marzocchi 2009 55 ATA Forks.
This frame was originally purchased from May this year. Before I bought it, all the bushes of the four bar linkage and the Fox DHX 5.0 rear air shock were serviced. I built the bike up into a full All Mountain rig, with the Marzocchi forks, but have only ridden it three times since and am selling it due to lack of space.
The frame is in excellent condition, as you can see from the photos, with just minor cable rub marks. It is a lovely colour of green and looks awesome out on the trail. The bottom bracket sizing is 68mm shell X-Type, the seat tube is 30mm, the rear brakes are disk only (NOT V-BRAKE COMPATIBLE). The frame size would suit anyone from 5'7" - 6'. Wheel size is standard 26".
The Fox DHX 5.0 Rear Air Shock has Pro-Pedal, which allows fine tuning of the rear suspension set-up, to reduce pedal induced bob, as well as bottom out and rebound adjustment settings. This gives the bike the ability to climb well in addition to being a monster going down. I will include a copy of Fox's setup guide as the shock can be custom dialled to suit your body mechanics and riding style.
The Marzocchi forks have hardly been used since I bought them in July this year, and still have the plastic sticker protectors on the legs and are unmarked. With only three hours of firetrail rides under their belt, they are not even bedded in yet. The travel settings are 120mm to 160mm, ATA (40mm Air travel adjustment, Positive and Negative Air), TST2 (Lock Out, Compression, Rebound Adjustment), 20mm QR torque axle (THIS MEANS THAT THEY ARE 20MM BOLT THROUGH AXLE ONLY), disk only (NOT V-BRAKE COMPATIBLE). The steerer tube has been slightly trimmed to 220mm, they have been left this long on purpose in case of future change of frame / fork, but there is still 82mm of steerer tube from the top of the headset, giving loads of options for its new owner. Again, I have the original setup guide for they can be custom tuned.
The frame is fitted with a brand new FSA PIG Headset.
This did, and will again make a phenomenal All Mountain / XC bike and was certainly the fastest out of all my friend's bikes going down the fast stuff. The whole package is in very good condition and I will be sad to see it go. The frame came to me in excellent condition and has had been fully cleaned and has had the shock and forks fully re-greased after each ride.
