2014 GT Force Carbon Expert Size Medium 27.5 wheels front and rear Bike has been expertly built, maintained, and upgraded by me (ex-bike mechanic). In very good working order with relatively modern geometry given its age. total weight is right around 30 pounds. The biggest thing aging this bike is the reach. Someone with a shorter torso and in the shorter end of the size range (5'5" to 5'9") would be right at home on this bike.

I feel like there needs to be more elaboration about the fact that the spider was removed on that M825 crank to install the O-chain. Is Shimano going to finally bring the Saint group up to date with the rest of the groups?
