Never seen that done before?I wouldn't do it as I much prefer the look of the mkI rear triangle and trying to find a rear end would probably be quite tricky. Not sure how much modification you would need if any?

I'm 6'3 and got the 20" it should be spot on, my 22" marin feels too big for me. I love the idea of no suspension, no bushes/pivots or tweaking of pressures and springs. It appeals to my lazy nature! I've had ages to look at these fat bikes and I can honestly say I don't regret spending £1k on...

Yep she sure is, it wasn't just the condition of the frame (as I bought it) but also having the original receipt and a service receipt is pretty rare (and puts your mind at rest that it wasn't nicked!) that attracted me to it. I paid £350 for frame and fork so it really is a bargain.

Still tempted to keep her :wink:

I'm sure I tries fedex and it came out quite expensive, i'll give it another go. Thanks for looking for me bud

Where was that from?I've had £120 as the cheapest so far

just a standard one from halfords, been on wheelcourier.com and they advertise shipping a bike for £50 but not sure if they are a reliable courier service?

This is useless!Fedex's website have told me the package and weight to send a bike is too large and they cannot offer a service, had one quote for £120!!!!Surely there has to be a reasonable courier somewhere?

Just rough the price finder thing and the only option coming up is letter or small packet, dont think I can get away with a bike as a small packet?

I'm so excited about picking it up, i'm having to stop myself driving to sheffield to ride the test bike again. Just hope early december means the 1st!

Good find!would you want it un-insured?

That is true!The holiday is booked 2 weeks in Brittany and then 3 nights in Paris but wanted to take my daughters to Disneyland, so it kills me to sell it but if it meant the girls were happy I would sell every bike I own. I do have an old saracen full susser and marin nail trail I could sell...

I'm blaming the economy and not the bike, at the time I doubt you could buy a better bike they really are superbikes, bombproof, sexy, amzingly well engineered!I'm starting to talk myself out of this

Anyone have any experience in shipping a full bike to France?Need to get a price for sending the Raven.

Yeah the fatty is an awesome fork as well...why the hell am I selling this?part of me thinks well i've paid the money for the on one so technically I could keep it, but the money would be going on the family holiday.

The raven was made for the lefty (imo) it suits the frame so well and rides perfect. Just sent some photo's to interested parties.

Yup she's back up for sale, previous buyer has pulled out so she's back. 19" 4000SL with lefty jake fork and also the original fatty SL fork. However the lefty axle was stripped so I retaped it to 7/16ths UNF thread (practically the same size so hardly any material from the axle has been...

I know it won't be the fastest thing around and it will be harder work on the trails but they just make sense to me, a bike that will go just about anywhere, low maintenance and they look pretty cool to boot 8)

Lucky guy owning that!Just found it whilst randomley googling bikes to pass the time at work :wink:

Not sure if anyone watched that classic car restoration programme?The one with the mustang they did up?Anyway the guy used boiling vinegar to try and unseize the engine (failed), I've never seen this done before but wondered if this might work on stuck seatposts?
