I have a beautiful Intense M9 that just hasn't seen enough use to justify keeping it in the fleet. The bike is in almost new condition, with very little use. Custom Works Red paint is a transparent/candy red finish that shows off the incredible metal work and welds that Intense is known for. The bike is highly adjustable and will include a Cane Creek Angleset headset and Cane Creek Double Barrel Coil shock in addition to all of the factory setting adjustments in the frame. Adjustable travel, progressivity, bottom bracket height, wheel base, and head angle. Open to REASONABLE OFFERS. From Intense: "Part of the secret to the M9's ability to flatten terrain lies in its VPP suspension design. VPP employs two aluminum counter-rotating links, which allows it to eat square-edged impacts at wide open speeds, without sacrificing pedaling efficiency when you need to get on the gas. The upper link provides most of the rotation as the bike compresses into the sag point. This yields a vertical wheel path, which you'll notice in the form of a firm feel during acceleration. As the bike compresses deeper into the suspension, the lower link activates, moving the axle path rearward. The rearward axle path is key to letting the rear wheel travel out of the way of square-edged impacts. And the suspension is highly adjustable, giving you the option of 8.5, 9, or 9.5 inches of travel to suit both your tastes, and the weekend's race course. Like the suspension travel, the M9's geometry is also highly adjustable. Starting at the front of the bike, you'll find a 1.5in head tube with an upper pinch bolt, which makes fitment and swapping of offset headset cups a breeze. That gives you up to 1.5 degrees of adjustment off of the stock 64 degree head tube angle. The bottom bracket height is adjustable from 13.7 to 14.2in, to maximize the planted feel in turns, or give you a bit of extra clearance in rocky sections. While the bottom bracket height is fairly ordinary for a World Cup race bike, when you consider the extra travel offered by the M9, you'll begin to see that it positions you close to the ground for astounding cornering grip. As you'd expect, Intense's G3 dropout system allows for a half an inch of adjustment in chainstay length, from a neutral handling 17.25, up to 17.75in for warp-speed stability."
