Spotted: New Rocky Mountain Enduro Bike
Yeah you know what's crazy? I have a 1999 Rocky mountain Blizzard from back in the days before the Frenchie takeover, and I know the guy's kid that did the powder coat. And he's powder coated all of my subsequent frames.
I got it new and I haven't bought a Rocky new since then.

Opinion: Do We Need Size-Specific Chainstays?
I have a 2014 banshee Rune that came with 135 dropouts. At the time, why the fuck would you want 27.5? But it was there.
I did buy the 142 dropouts but last summer I destroyed my wheel at silver Star and the only spare I have is 135 so, change the dropouts.
And of course the 142 /27.5 dropouts are longer and I can feel the difference when trying to manual but at the bike part it's definitely more stable. Modular is the way to go

Jun 25, 2023pair shimano XT brakes
$100 CADIt's actually 2002 or 2001 but the years don't go back that far.
Bought new when I was at Kicking Horse with my 01 Santa Cruz Bullit.
Just cleaning out my parts drawer and found these. Can't even say when they were last used. One has brake pads the other one doesn't, probably needs new fluid but they'll work.
Original metal brake line that sucks so bad and gouged up your frame.

Jun 25, 2023Ironhorse 7point
$300 CAD2008 Ironhorse 7point freeride frame. I've had this puppy forever and due to a lot of reasons I haven't ridden it in the last 4 years.
When I bought it I got it sandblasted and powder coated which of course is much stronger and durable than regular paint. That said it still has a few scratches.
The shock is a Marzocchi Roco World Cup which is compression rebound and reservoir pressure/volume. It comes with needle bearing pivots on the upper shock pivot. The bearings are in good shape and everything is tight. Not exactly sure the weight of the spring but it was fine for me and I'm 190 plus gear.
Comes with e13 chain guide, seat post clamp, spare derailleur hanger and a Works Performance -2° headset, which takes the head angle down to somewhere around 63° with my Marzocchi 888.

Jun 25, 2023M Turner 5spot
$800 CADIf the ad is up, it's still for sale.
I'm really not kidding when I say will ship within country only, so anyone that is not Canadian it's pick up only.
2011 Turner 5spot, medium.
Much loved Turner 5spot up for sale. Knee injury prevented use last year and too busy this year so she needs to go to a good home. It's been my second bike so hasn't seen a lot of use.
Currently has a Marzocchi 66 rc2 custom built with a ETA climb device.
Works performance minus 2° headset slacks it out.
Comes with Cane Creek DB inline with climb switch. Climb switch has never been used because the DW is that good.
Other components include Easton havoc Wheels, race face deus cranks, Shimano zee shifter and derailleur and Shimano brakes, 200 mm SLX up front and Deore out back. It's 1x10 and it's got a 40 tooth on the cassette. I also left the granny on the cranks just in case but I never really use it.
Easton carbon bars.
Trans-x dropper post.
Does not include pedals because I might need them but I can probably find a pair of flats somewhere.
Also included is a whole bunch of replacement bushings and a grease gun to grease up your pivots.
