**SOLD PP** 2003 Dean Baja Titanium £250 posted

[raidan73]

I bought this earlier in the year but it has sat unloved in the shed and I've decided I've not got the room for it in the fleet right now. I think perhaps I'll wait a while and see if this new-fangled full suss malarkey catches on

It's a one off in that it was built for the previous owner with S&S couplings as he travelled around a lot. The Rockshox Monarch shock seems to hold air fine and has no leaks. V or disc brake compatible. Includes the Shimano BB and Salsa seatpost collar. Also a spare mech hanger and the S&S spanner will be included. It's a small and is dent and crack free. I'll follow up with the measurements shortly.

I have no idea what I should ask for this and can obviously provide more pics and info if anyone shows any interest. I have the original receipt and the frame cost something stupid like £3000.

How does £275 posted sound? NOW £250

Edit: The red, blue, yellow and green crayons on the ground are in no way an attempt at an artistic photo using the Dean decal colours. They are just a, quite frankly freakish, coincidence :shock:

very interesting BB pivot design! dont think ive ever seen that before. looks very strong and simple and using large diameter bearings, i wonder why its not used more often as looks bloody good to me. glwts

very similar to the kona a and bass, although they also had sliding dropouts cos the main advantage is the chain length stays the same though the arc, so you can run single speed

simple design but i imagine the issue is pedal bob. prob a decent shock will sort that out

lol, yes I'm here!

Adrian kindly offered me this before putting it up here (unless he has 2 ti Dean's frames....) but I'm out for now, the tiny bit of spare cash I have after working stupid hours before Christmas is going on the latest Kona.... :mrgreen:

Obviously, being a woman, I may change my mind at any moment....
