Apr 4, 2021Lapierre Spicy 527
$450 GBP2014 Lapierre Spicy 527 frame for sale, medium size. I have owned this since new and it has been a fantastic frame. It was purchased as a complete bike at the end of 2013 and I only changed frames due to outgrowing the medium size. This is a seriously stiff frame yet very respectable in terms of weight when fully built. I have left the bottom bracket in as it is a press fit one. It is however missing the outer plastic seal/shim on the drive side, these may be available as a replacement part from Race Face. Other than that it will do another turn. The frame has been sitting for a couple of years now and will probably benefit from some fresh bearings to bring it back to full health. Other than that it is displaying normal wear and tear such as minor chain slap marks and cable rub all of which I have tried my best to detail. There is one tiny sent in the downtube, this happened while the bike was fairly new and it never really bothered me, it certainly hasn't amounted to anything.
The spec is as follows:
2014 Lapierre Spicy 527 frame
150mm rear travel
Fox Float CTD 200x57 shock included (tune ID in pictures)
44-56mm tapered head tube (headset cups still in place however there are no bearings)
142x12 rear axle spacing with Shimano Ethru quick release axle
BB92 bottom bracket shell
2x spare mech hangers included
Open to all sensible offers, please don't hesitate with any questions or if you require extra photos. I am happy to post however it will be at the buyers expense.

Apr 1, 2021Rockshox Pike RCT3 27.5
$300 GBPHaving a clear out, 2015 Rockshox Pike RCT3 for sale. These have been sitting for a couple of years and were only swapped to upgrade to a longer travel fork with BOOST axle spacing. Overall in pretty good shape however a lower leg service wouldn't go amiss. I have tried to detail as much of the marks and imperfections as possible and it is also worth noting they are a matte black fork, they just look glossy as they are covered in silicone spray. Specs are as follows.
2015 Rockshox Pike RCT3 Solo Air
Charger Damper (Open, pedal and climb modes with separate low speed compression and rebound adjustment.
160mm travel
27.5 version with standard 15x100mm through axle (in the pictures the forks are fitted with an original style Rockshox Maxle, they will come with the correct updated version).
Steerer cut at 182mm roughly.
Bad bits (there's always something): the CSU creaks, this was something I had warrantied in the beginning and the CSU was replaced. Shortly afterwards the new one began creaking as well and from what I gather this is all too common and not a result of a defect. For the last year or so with them fitted I lived with it and it didn't effect them what so ever. I had exactly the same issue with the Fox 34 this fork replaced.
I will happily post these forks however I have not factored the cost of postage into the price. Any further questions please ask. Looking for £300 but will happily listen to offers.
