For sale is my Vitus Rapide CRS hardtail. I bought this bike May 2022 so only had it a year and have ridden around 100miles on it, so hardly used. As such, apart from a couple of shoe marks on chain stays, it's in excellent condition. Since owning it I have added a 150mm one up dropper, SDG saddle, and different bars/stem/grips. It's also running tubeless and has full frame protection applied. It's a super light, stiff and response XC bike. Brilliant for flying through blue trails or XC races. Size is XL. I'd suggest 6ft and over would be best suited. Full spec as follows: Frame - Carbon XL Vitus Rapide Fork- Rockshox SID SL 100mm remote lockout Wheels - WTB i25 KOM Tyres - Schwalbe Racing Ray (f) Racing Ralf (r) Drivetrain - Shimano SLX 12 Speed Brakes - Shimano Deore M6100 Cockpit - RaceFace Aefect bars and Stem, Ergon grips. Seatpost - 150mm One-up dropper Saddle - SDG Pedals - DMR Vault Any questions let me know. Collection only as don't have a box.

For sale is my 2021 Stanton Switch9er 140mm travel frame. The frame is size 19.5 (large) with a custom 18" (medium) seatube length spec'd at purchase. I am 6 ft with a 33" inseam, and the size was perfect for me with a 210mm seatpost. There's a geo chart in the pictures too for you to look at. Included in the sale is a 150mm Brand X dropper, tapered Superstar Headset, and two springs. There is a 343lb spring is fitted, with a spare 388lb spring. I'm 85kg with kit on, and found the 343lb spring was the right one for me. It seemed a low spring weight to me but was advised by Stanton that it's because these frames have high leverage ratio's. I can include the OneUp 210mm dropper which I also bought in January 2023, but would want an additional £150. Overall frame is in great condition; it has been invisi-framed since new which has protected the majority of the frame from any paint chips. However, as you'd expect coverage isn't 100% and there are a couple of area's where the paint has been removed; either by cable rub or stone chip. I have laquered and put tape over any of the bare steel, which you'll see from the photo's, to prevent any rust forming. The seat tube has also been protected on the inside to prevent any rust from inside out. I've replaced the bearings and the Ohilins TTX2M shock was serviced in Jan '23. Have only ridden it once since, so is good to go for the next owner. With this hopefully giving you a good sense of how I've looked after the frame, on to why I bought it and why I'm looking to replace it. This bike has been the result of years of swapping between different frames trying to find the perfect frame for me. I enjoy riding steep, technical tracks; and the occasional Enduro race. For me, Stanton have managed to nail creating a well balanced frame that combines; stability at speed and on the steeps; agility through tight turns; great pedal-ability, and due to high leverage ratio, a plush suspension feel of a longer travel bike. Despite all that, past injuries and age are getting the better of me. Plus I don't have the time to do the sort of riding I have previously enjoyed so am looking for something a bit tamer to suit the trails closer to home. If you have a downcountry / short travel trail frame then feel free to offer a swap. Happy to post or for buyer to collect; just let me know. Also open to offers, and any questions you may have.

For Sale is my 2021 Planet X EC-130E with Token Ventous Carbon wheels and a SRAM Rival Stages Power Meter Crank. Sizing is Large which suits between 5ft 11 and 6ft 2. The frame is in excellent condition with no cracks, scratches, or chips. There's also no creaking either, probably because it uses a threaded BB! All bearings are running smoothly, and chain still has loads of life left in it. I'm running the tyres tubeless. Whilst both tyres and pads also have loads of life left in them, brakes don't need bleeding either. Is a really efficient, stiff bike especially when paired with the Carbon wheelset. Have ridden everything from TT's to 100+ miles routes on it, and has been a joy to ride. Surprisingly versatile for an 'aero' bike. Full Specification is as follows: Frame: Planet X EC-130E Size Large (Compact size 54cm) with carbon aero seat post Wheels: Token Ventous 36mm Disc All-Road Wheelset (These are £1000 new alone) Tyres: Schwalbe Pro One 25mm tubeless Drivetrain: SRAM Rival 22 Speed (2x11) Brakes: SRAM Rival Hydraulic Disc Power Meter: SRAM Rival Stages Crank Saddle: Fabric Line Race Other Components: Selcof bar, stem, tape, spacers, and headset. SRAM GXP BB Weight is somewhere around 8.5kg Any questions let me know,
