Hi All,
Finally i have done some research into what the prices of all my parts in my custom build are fetching and have decided to sell my whole rig as i am now looking at using the cash to buy a hard-tail 4X bike as i need to get back into riding as it's been a while! I need a fun bike to street ride on and 4X. Not too Dirt Jumpy but something like a GT Lopes 55 or a Yeti DJ built up for all round riding.
I am putting my Heavy Tools up for £500 all in.
Open to realistic offers around this figure though!
The bike is in pretty good condition for the age and really hasn't been ridden that much. The odd scratch and cable rub are obvious but no major damage. The bushes on the pivots could do with replacing and a service is probably worthwhile but like i said i have never really ridden this bike since i finished building it in 2000.
This frame was £1350 and forks were £1100 back in the day. The frame has adjustable head angle and BB height, Adjustable Chain and Seat stay lengths and Shock leverage ratios so you can really set this up for the DH course you're looking at shredding!
Currently there is no saddle on this bike as I've binned it - it had a split in it from my old bike back in 1998 and has since started falling to bits. For the pics i have borrowed my girlfriends saddle to give you an idea of the "complete" bike.
