Jun 21, 2011Ironhorse Sunday WC *********NO TRADES*******
$1450 USDSo here's the deal, some of you may remember me from a few years back, I had my Bighit stolen that I put well over $1000 into the day after I had taken it out for a ride after it had been sitting for a few years because of back problems. I've since then had a nerve block done on my back where I feel less pain, and decided to get back into riding. I've always liked the feel of full suspension bikes, so I scoured the internet for a nice rig, and ended up finding this nice Sunday WC. After going over budget $280 on the bike, I had issues with it out of the packaging....I had to bring it to North Star Sports for a $250 repair bill, and had to purchase new grips, and a brand new headset, new chain along with truing the rims and getting a stiffer rear coil, I was frustrated to say the least. In any case, I've since then found out that I just can't afford to keep the bike, and most importantly, I haven't even found the time to ride it like I thought I would. I've taken a huge liking into fishing, and it consumes all of my free time. So needless to say, I will be selling the bike to someone....HOPEFULLY locally, I'd like to avoid shipping this beast.
First I'll start off with some issues. There are 2 dents in the rear rim, but since they're so burly they don't affect the integrity or so I'm told. One side of the lock-ons needs to be replaced because the previous owner used the wrong screw and it is cracked. The rear brake needs new seals I think, it works but if you hold the lever down it slowly makes its way to the bar. The rear derailleur should be replaced soon (Tech at North Star told me this), along with cleaning the rear hub, the backpedal is sticky sometimes.
I paid $1600 to get the bike and have it be rideable, and am OK with losing a bit of money, but this bike is great, and will come with the old coil, and brand new ODI lock-on grips.
