Hello all - (I will add pics shortly, but they will only reinforce it's a well taken care of bike in great condition :) ) I am letting my Transition Bandit go not because it is the most fun trail bike I've been on, but because I am changing my bike fleet. I am selling both my TR450 (DH ride) and this Bandit to purchase one 160mm bike. I will be sad to see this bike go, but it'll make someone else really really happy:) Color: Metallic Red Size: Medium Fork: Fox 32 CTD Kashima Shock: Fox Float CTD Kashima Wheels: Transition Revolution Trail 27.5 - 100x15mm Front, 142x12mm Rear, Tubeless Ready Cranks: Raceface Ride - 2x10, 24/36, 175mm, Black, 68/73mm Stem: Raceface Ride Handlebar: Durox Core 2014 Durox Handlebar - 760x35mm, 31.8mm Headset: FSA Brakes - Front and Back: Avid Elixir 1 with 180mm Avid HS1 rotors Tires: Geax GOMA - lots of life left Dropper Seat Post - Specialized Command Post Saddle: Transition Park n Ride AM Saddle Grips: Transition Grips Cassette: Shimano - 2014 CS-HG50 Cassette (10sp, 11-36) Rear Shifter: Shimano - 2014 Deore SL-M610 Rear Shifter (10sp, w/ clamp) Front Shifter: Shimano - 2014 Deore SL-M610 Front Shifter (2/3sp, w/ clamp) Rear Derailleur: Shimano - 2014 SLX RD-M675 Shadow Plus Rear Derailleur (GS, Direct Attach) Front Derailleur: Shimano - 2014 Deore FD-M616 Direct Mount Front Derailleur (Double, Dual Pull)

I'm selling my all mountain machine. It's a Titus El Guapo (smaller boutique brand that makes some pretty cool bikes). Size Medium (I would say a medium on the larger side). It's used but no major issues. I would list it as fair to good condition (more on the good side). I want to make sure the buyer knows exactly what they are getting so there are no surprises when the box is opened. I bought a used bike online and was woefully unimpressed at the condition the bike was in when I recieved it. I don't want that to happen to whomever buys this bike so I'm going to try to list most every nuance and detail I can think of:) So don't take all this information as the bike is in terrible condition and all these things are wrong, but rather I'm am just trying to be very detailed in case I ship the bike to someone who won't see it in person until they buy it. It has most things expected with a mountain bike that is a few years old years old (about a 2007 frame I believe...based on some Google image searching might even be a 2008, or perhaps a 2006...I can't seem to get a definitive answer). Nicks in the paint on frame from crashes/rocks. Some bigger than others, but none bigger than a dime. I can provide detailed pictures of each if you'd like. Cable rub on the frame and cables. A good amount of scratches/nicks on the cranks (pictures should show that pretty well). They are cranks...:) Shifts pretty good. My boyfriend, a bike mechanic, did switchout and tighten the cable for the rear and it's better, but not 100% smooth all the time. Suspension has been great for me. The fork was relatively new when I bought it three years ago. The seals are a little dry and have a little cracking. Grips are still very grippy. Tires only have about 10 shorter rides on them and thus a lot of life left. I felt the tension in all the spokes it was pretty consistent but perfectly tight. The wheels are pretty darn close to 100% true. Seat has some scratches/small rips, but not where you could feel when riding...more just cosmetic. Rotors used, but in fair/good condition still. Wheels have some scratches, but nothing big or that would compromise the performance of the bike. Basically, it's an older used bike. Hence why is under a grand instead of more. All in all, I think this is a fair asking price. It's between the prices listed for good and fair on the Bike Blue Book (http://www.bicyclebluebook.com/SearchListingDetail.aspx?id=3030340&make=823&model=66050&year=2007) Please let me know if you have any more questions or would like more pictures.
