Downhill Bike

I'm selling my downhill bike. I built it during to summer of 2007, and I don't have time to ride anymore, so it needs a new home instead of collecting dust. This bike has been flawless other than eating chains if you really crank on it while climbing because the chain line isn't perfect (off 1-2 mm) because of the chain guide. It gets stares and compliments whenever I took it out. It is monstrous and weighs in the 50-70 lb range.

Price is $1000.

I'm willing to split shipping 50/50 with the buyer.

I have a few extra tubes and tools that will go with the bike. I also should have the original manuals/paperwork for most of the parts.

 

Solid frame. Iv had time on the sin, along with the shockwave 9.5. Both wicked.

Im not sure if your on bike sites, but you will have better luck selling on these.

Good luck with the sale.

 

Thanks. I'm not actually on any bike forums, but I'll check those out.

 

Bump!

Back from vacation.

 

What a beast! I had no idea the downhill bikes were that heavy!

 

Would you part out? You might have better luck, 5 year old frames are a hard sell in the bike world.

I have my eye on a few parts if your willing...

 

I'll think about it. I've been meaning to take it by the local shop to see if they would be interesting in buying it, putting it on consignment, or doing some sort of trade.

Send me a PM with the parts you're interesting in and what you're looking to pay.

 

Bump! Price dropped.

 

Bump. Price dropped again. I'm practically giving this thing away!
