2018 Kona Process AL 27.5 This bike has been ridden lots, but it has been very well maintained. It has just been given a full inspection and tune up. Brakes work, shifting works, tubless sealant has been checked and added. Wheels are true. Fork has been serviced twice, most recently about a year ago, but the bike has only had 2 or 3 days of riding since that time. Drivetrain: Upgraded to Sram NX/GX. 12speed Cassette 11-50T. There is a significant scratch on the derailleur, but it is working fine. The derailleur hanger has been straightened in this most recent tune up, and the bike comes with an extra derailleur hanger. Definitely not the original chain, It is not new, but with lots of life left. Brakes Sram Level TL on the rear. (2 piston) Sram Guide R, 4 piston brake on the front. The original brake was damaged, and it turned out to make more sense to replace the whole front brake with the 4 piston Guide R that I had in the parts bin. Both the front and rear work beautifully; pads are not quite new, but have plenty of life. Wheels: Front: was just given some minor truing adjustments, and is spinning great. Rear: The original rim got pretty janked and has been replaced with an almost new DT Swiss EX 511. Tires Front, Schalbe Magic Mary Rear, Maxxis Minion. Pedals not included, but the pedals on there now can be used for your test ride. About me and this bike. I am an advanced home mechanic. I do all my own repairs and maintenance, including servicing forks. As I mentioned, this bike has been ridden a lot, but any time things went out of adjustment, or broke, they were repaired or replaced. It has been a beast for my son, who is now in college. These days he is not riding much, and when he does, he leans toward the hardtail, so it is time for us to say goodbye to the Kona. If you know bikes, you know this a great bike at this price point. If you are new to bikes, don't worry, we were all there once. Safe meeting place is the parking lot at Schirle Elemenaty school, in Salem, 97302. Cash, in person deal only.

This is a Specialized Chisel, Size Large, I believe from 2021. https://www.specialized.com/us/en/chisel/p/184106?color=291540-184106 Everything is great. It shifts and stops as it should, and it is ready to go. I have ridden it only very lightly, mostly gavel style rides. I took it on a few rides at Spring Valley at that is about it. Tires are currently set up tubless with Orange Seal. They are holding fine, but you may want to add sealant for this season. If you have never done it before, it is super easy. If you want to bring a bottle of sealant with the injector tube, I'm happy to help you do it. Dropper post IS included. The bar ends are not included. Pedals are not included, but I have a pair of flats you can use to try it out. The saddle is not the original to the bike, but otherwise everything is stock. The chain is not new, but is reading below 0.5%. Brake pads are not new, but with plenty of life left. My proposed public meeting place is the parking lot at Schirle Elemenary School, in Salem... during non school hours. About me. I am an avid...but non professional...bike mechanic. I do all my own repairs, including servicing forks. I have done very little with this bike, only because simply have not ridden it much. Feel free to grill me with questions. I'm looking for an honest and open transaction. $800 is a fair price. If you are hoping to find little things wrong and nickel and dime me down, please find another seller. If you are a veteran, you know this is a great bike at this price point. If you are new to this...don't worry, we were all new to this once. If you or your son/daughter rides with NICA, let me know. I'm by no means a celebrity, but there are enough people in the NICA community that do. Having a common reference is often a good thing. I will consider shipping, but frankly I really don't want to go to that trouble. If I don't sell it at $800, I'm more inclined to take it down to Peak Sports in Corvallis, and let them sell it for me.

I have a 2018 fox 36 with the grip 2 Damper. Want the fit 4 damper, If you want a grip 2, and have a fit 4, lets trade. This image is stock, not my actual damper. If you are interested, let me know and we can lookup serial numbers to double check compatibility. I'm not going to the pull the damper out for a photo unless I know there is someone interested. I'm not interested in selling. Trade only. Lastly, I don't plan on reposting this ad every few days, so if it is ends up pretty old, don't assume I've moved on. I am still interested. Update: A while back I did a service, and have been riding the grip 2...it has been fine. But since I'm riding a lot, and just serviced the fork, I don't really feel like pulling it apart. I have a short list of people that are interested in the trade. If you want to join that list, feel free to reach out, I'll keep your info, and when I'm servicing it again, or if I feel like pulling it a part, I'll reach out to you guys. If there is someone that wants to make deal. We'll go from there. Thanks Ben
