3 daysChromag Lowdown high spec L/XL
$5250 CADI'm selling my Chromag Lowdown in size large/XL.
The frame is a size large, but Chromag’s geometry is a little different to others. This size large has a 513MM reach, so is more like an XL size in most other bike brands.
This will be good for riders 5'11" - 6'4". For reference, I'm 6'3" and usually ride an XL, except for Chromag where I ride a size large.
Spec:
- Lowdown frame in size large, 158mm travel, 29"
- Rockshox Zeb Ultimate, 170mm travel, Charger 3.1 damper
- EXT Storia V3 coil shock. 425lb spring fitted, also comes with a 450lb spring
- Reserve 30 HD carbon rims on Industry Nine Hydra hubs
- Schwalbe Magic Mary tyres, both are the purple Addix compound. Front is super trail casing, rear is super gravity. Both tyres are almost brand new and still have the little rubbers hairs
- The drivetrain is a mix of Sram Eagle 12spd parts. XX AXS transmission wireless electronic derailleur and shifter, GX 10-52T cassette, black GX chain, 32T chainring, 170mm carbon cranks. The cassette is brand new with zero rides on it, the chain is almost new with 1-2 rides on it.
- Rockshox Reverb 175mm dropper post. I also have a OneUp V3 240mm dropper that will be included, but it needs a new cartridge and service to work again.
- Hope Tech3 V4 brakes with 200mm Hope floating rotors
- Chromag 35mm stem, Deity bars, raceface grips, brand new Chromag Trailmaster saddle.
The bike is in good shape but has the usual scratches and scuffs of a used bike. I wrapped 90% of the frame in thick 3M automotive clear protection tape since day one. This tape was not a pro ridewrap job, so its not the most seamless application and its also lost its gloss finish over time. If you peeled this tape off you would have a pretty fresh frame underneath. The two downtube protectors are stuck on top of the tape so you would need to source new ones from Chromag. I'll leave it up to the new owner to decide if they want to leave it as is or peel off the tape.
I live in East Vancouver, but I'm usually in Squamish 1-2 days a week for work so I could bring the bike with me.
$5250 OBO

Video: The First Ever Women's Finals Highlights from Red Bull Rampage 2024
We were only allowed to show a maximum of five minutes of riding, so we chose to show the top three almost full runs and then just the highlights of the other runs. It's also a huge hillside, and we have limited cameras and media access. We would have loved to have a camera every 50ft, but it wasn't possible.

The Pinkbike Podcast: We Rank the Glory, M1, Supreme V5, Frameworks, Tues (And the V10!?)
@FIN599: The Glory review will be up soon! I didn't get lost, we just decided to push it back a week so it didn't compete with all the Crankworx stuff going on.

Thanks Henry, right back at you. It's been a really fun year making videos that are just the right amount of stupid. We will have you sipping on an overpriced flat white by the end of 2024

The Park Tool background is a real workshop. We use it on an almost daily basis as a video/photo backdrop and of course to work on bikes.

Video: Welcome to the 2023 Enduro Bike Field Test
We have reviewed at least five of the bikes on that list in previous Field Test's over the past few years, as well as standalone reviews of most of the other bikes mentioned. Field Test is a group test of new or new-ish and interesting bikes in a particular bike category/discipline, not every single bike currently available to buy.
