I'm also going to throw in a nearly new set of Maxxis Minion (MaxxPro compound) for really sloppy riding & a set of thule wheel bags.
Fork and shock serviced 8 months ago by BouceSuspension, in Preston.
It's a used bike so come with a few chips and marks in the usual places.
Aesthetically there two things to point out:
1. On the rear of the seat stay, the previous owner used a very high tack protective film which I've not taken off. It looks a bit worn and dirty now.
2. Top tube, paint worn. I locked the bike up using a very heavy duty motorbike chain with a kevlar sleeve. It took the paint off. I'm an idiot for not realising.
As you can tell, this is a well cared for bike that has been used and serviced. Raced it at ArdMoors, ArdRock, Boltby Bash etc... and LOVED it!! Lightning fast on like a cloud over the rough stuff.
Nevertheless, I'm going to sell it and treat myself to something new
Getting into 'enduro' biking or returning after a layoff, perfect bike for very little (comparatively) expenditure.
THE END :)

Jul 28, 2013Chris Boardman HT pro(medium, 18inch)Superstar/Stans ZTR cre
$850 GBPChris Boardman HT Pro (2012)
Ridden only five times since new, bought Dec' 2012, due to a recurring back injury. I chose it over and above the conventional names, having already owned Orange P7's, Orange 5', Scott Aspect' etc etc..., due to awesome spec and brilliant reviews. Needless to say, it does not disappoint!
Very sad to see this go but I'm no longer capable of riding 7 - 8hrs and this bike was built for exactly that, I've really reduced the rolling weight (wheels) and significantly improved the handling (bars, stem, grips), in total is has been used for a maximum of 5hrs!
Absolute blast to ride, inspires confidence and much better spec than anything else on the market. I know I'd be smashing personal bests and Strava times at all the trail centres on this bike....if only I could ride the thing for long enough!
Better to give to somebody else and find a new sport, i think.

I took a leaking Fox RP3 unit off and put this on for 'one' ride - the fox unit has since been repaired and sold - it's old and simple but good.
Reason for sale - injured my back and can't do justice to such a good bike but, when I was riding, it really helped boost my confidence and skill. I hope somebody else will be able to use it properly.

Aug 14, 2011Scott Scale 30, Carbon Fibre, , Large
$1000 GBPHi,
For sale. 2008 Scott Scale 30 carbon fibre 'weight weenie'
The bike was bought new for £2000, rode only once by my step-father, and still has the rubber nipples on the tyre tread! Here is the crucial spec. list:
Frame: Scott Scale carbon CR1 with custom disc dropout and SDS shock damping system
Forks: Fox 32 F100RL 100mm air sprung with alloy steerer and quad tapered lowers. Rebound adjust and lockout
Gears: Shimano LX front and XT rear
Shifters: Shimano LX Rapidfire plus
Chainset: Truvativ Firex 3.3 Giga X Pipe 44/32/22
Bottom Bracket: Hope Ceramic
Brakes: Avid Juicy 5 with 185mm front and 160mm rear rotors
Wheels: Mavic Crossride rims built on Mavic Crossride hubs
Tyres: Schwalbe Nobby Nic 26x2.1 triple compound
Handlebars: Scott Comp
Stem: Scott Pro 4 bolt
Saddle: Scott racing
Seatpost: Scott RC 34.9mm
The bike is in showroom condition, has been recently serviced (forks and drivetrain) and no signs that it has ever been rode. The reason for sale, my step father is a competitive road racer who 'collects' bikes but a recent clear-out by my mother has left him little or no choice but to sell this bike.
Having ridden one of these bikes before I'd have to say it is better than anything you could pick up for a comparable price, it's so light (less than 10kg!) and quick no matter what the terrain. Have a look at this review for another opinion.
http://www.bikeradar.com/gear/category/bikes/mountain/product/review-scott-scale-30-08--28523/?_brc=1
There are loads of forum threads exalting the scale 30 as one of the best bikes around due to spot-on geometry, great components and potential to create a genuine 'weight weenie'. Have a look.
Get in contact if you want to make an offer.
Hope this all helps
Chris
