Sep 21, 2021Ferrum LV145 large
$1200 USDHave had this beauty for a year now and the only reason to let it go is having too many bikes in the garage that I’ve had for less time. This single pivot jumped better than any bike I have ridden and you almost need to get “used” to holding it back. Bike comes with a DBIL shock that fits this single pivot curve well since it’s so adjustable. Have volume reducers set up in the shock to fit the leverage curve the best. Love the way the steel flexes through berms as it holds traction super well and pops out of corners well. I have this set up as a mixed wheel which I personally love but it’s advertised as a 29/27+. I had the folks at ferrum do a 210x50 shock since it was a more common metric size and it has a 475mm reach, 64.5 degree HTA, 626 ETT, adjustable chainstays set at 440mm. Seatpost diameter is 31.6. I have about 150 miles on this and had it mostly wrapped in helicopter tape. Still have some areas of normal rub and some spots around the shock mount and BB where the powder coat has come off. NO rust anywhere on this frame and functions perfectly. Will post pics of rub and powder coat spots when I get home. Frame, axle, headset included in sale. Will split shipping and PP fees so add about $75 if you want it shipped via bikeflights.

So does this mean you are going to give the Druid a go on race day. I was honestly a bit bummed that you didn’t. Wanted to see what a “short” travel bike was capable of.

Feb 17, 2020Intense Recluse large
$2050 USDPENDING SALE
2017 large recluse in good shape. Bought this frame here and got 3 rides in before buying another bike. Some parts with less than 10 miles on them like bottom bracket, tires, stem, grips. Others with varying degrees of age that I had around from other builds. Everything works though and it is 100% rideable today. Parts:
160 pike, can include a 150 air shaft. I thought the 160 was balanced though
Aeffect 30/raceface front wheel with e13
Arc 27 with formula hub and rock razor rear
Fox X2
DMR low stack stem and aeffect 35 bar with chromag grips
11 speed SLX rear derail and xt shifter and GX casette
PNW rainier dropper. 125 I think
Deore brakes
WTB rocket saddle
Truvativ descendant 175 cranks with 32t chainring
Think that’s it. Will probably pull the pedals off.
This is a light poppy bike on the trails. It rails berms with the short chainstays and is well balanced for sending doubles. I was surprised at how it handled repeated compressions and tracked though. I attribute that to the amazing job the tune on the X2 does. Didn’t have a ton of steerer tube on the pike so that’s the reason for the low stack DMR stem. You could get more height with higher rise bars but the 30mm rise on these is nice. Had reasonable scratches and wear but it’s overall mild. Most notable is a spot of paint that looks buckled on the downtube. The guy I bought it from thought it was from leaning up against something in his attic. Nothing beyond paint from my inspection.
For the full asking price I will take care of shipping and PayPal fees. Cheers.
