Description:
For sale is a very versatile carbon hardtail in excellent condition. Im selling so that I can upgrade to full suspension XC.
This is my secondary bike, mainly used for climbing on fireroads. The frame was heavily wrapped with a mix of helicopter & shelter tape, so its very well protected.
The bike is also very versatile, it can take both 29 & 27.5+ (w/ 2.8 tires) wheels. And easily upgradeable to 1x (all you need is just a bigger cassette & chainring). I wanted to upgrade to 1x, but I actually like the 2x system as it gives you more range.
The top tube has clear coat chip when I got the bike. Its underneath the helicopter tape
Upgrade:
-
Ive added PNW 100mm Coast Suspension dropper. This dropper post is unique where it is both a dropper and also provides 40mm tunable air suspension giving you extra cushion on bumpy road.
-
I will also include a used Sunrace CSMX8 11-46T cassette & a OneUp Switch 32T Round chainring. All you need to upgrade to 1x11 is just the $26 OneUp Carrier
Service:
-
The fork was just serviced last week and the bike was used 2x after to test it out.
-
Chain was replaced last year and still well below the 0.5 worn mark
-
Both brake pads was replaced last year.
-
Both brake fully bled last year as well.
