    Bought the bike today. Frame had no damage or scraps at all. The bike has been ridden 10 times looks brand new minus the little bit of dirt on the bike. He upgraded the forks to the Titanium verson of the Rock Shocks Revelation. Works great and I talked him down to $1100. I think I am very lucky. I am so stoked to get riding!.

    Originally I was planning to source a Santa Cruz Blur LTc or TRc frame for my next build---as I was getting the parts ready.

    ....then comes this 2012 Santa Cruz Butcher that I couldn't pass up. Originally listed for $2200, and got the kid to take $1900 cash for it AND he threw in a brand new, never used O'neal MX helmet no charge. :D

    Here is the "BEFORE" picture of my new pure XC/AM build, the 2012 Butcher:

    CameraZOOM-20120731190113842-picsay_c0142fa36110bd8f3561ecc7c2aea884b13b7ee6.jpg


    Already have a 2013 brand new in box Fox 36 RC2 Talas Kashima(another Craiglist find for $750) fork that I will be throwing on there.

    Drivetrain will be replaced with all Sram XO running gear, and going with a Truvativ Hammerschmidt crank/bb setup this week. This will be my mountain goat bike! ;)

    I'll post the "AFTER" pic by the end of the week!

    Big tires, big lift, Lots of stuff's.
    About took out a homeless today on a quick ride this morning. Whole bunch of them in the middle of the trail on a down hill blind corner. I went off the trail and back on just in time, all I hear is "thank you sir" he was a little older and everyone else got off the trail in time.

    Rode 11 miles on the new bike today. Shit man what a blast. Took a 1 mile long 12% incline climb, totally kicked my ass. The downhill was worth it though! I have been missing out all these years.
