This is a 2018 Giant Trance 1 with entirely upgraded components ranging in date of purchase from 2018-2023. The bike pedals quietly and smoothly and is capable and comfortable in steep, technical terrain. The frame has some significant cosmetic paint damage, primarily on the seat/chainstays, but on other areas as well. The bike received an overhaul and suspension service in September 2022. About 15 hours and 90 hours remain until suspension service for the shock and fork are needed, respectively. The frame is a rare color to find in the US as this color was only released in UK. I am happy to send more pictures or answer any other questions.

Cool article. Pennsylvania is hardly the South though. Come through GA! We have many hidden gems.

Mar 26, 2014Rocky Mountain Altitude 70, FOX, Shimano XT, RaceFace (18")
$1100 USDThis is a 2009 Rocky Mountain Altitude 70 (MSRP $4000), size medium. It features a Fox Float 32 fork, Fox RP23 rear shock, and Shimano XT brakes, shifters, deraileurs and hubs. The gearing is set up 2x9 with a RaceFace bashguard and medium length rear deraileur for awesome BB height and snappy shifting. The wheels are 26" Mavic 717 disc. Tires are set up with Stan's conversion kit and have less than 100 miles (front: Schwalbe Fat Albert 26x2.25, rear: Maxxis Ardent 2.25).
The bike has been well maintained and cared for (proper maintenance of drivetrain, shock seals and stantions, suspension linkages, brakes, etc.), and everything is in great working condition. That said, there are certainly aesthetic signs of wear (paint scratches, cable rub, etc.). Both deraileurs and the chain were replaced within the last 6 months
I have really enjoyed my time on this bike, but I think I would have benefited from a large instead of a medium.
All-in-in this is a really fun and responsive Trail/All Mountain style ride.
