    Steel (is real) 29er mountain bike.

    Size 17 (medium)
    Steel fork, and a rock shox Reba (which is out for service, should have it back by Friday)
    Avid bb5's
    Wide/narrow chainring (guide pictured is OFF, but will be included)
    Extra rear wheel (tubeless was being a butch, so I bought a rear wheel that is tubeless specific)
    Sram x9 derailleur
    Selle italia saddle
    It has shimano spd's on it. I have to look and see what I have for platforms too, but pedals can be negotiated, whether or not you want them.

    $700. It might seem steep, but it's a rock solid platform, with a fresh fork ($200 service)

    Current config (sans chain guide):



    With fork:



    Pm offers.
    Edit: only reason for sale is to build a race bike. Xc Race mtb.
    Edit 2: I THINK I have some spacers and a cog to convert this to single speed as well still. I ran it as a ss for a few years, so the current shifter setup probably only has 150 or so miles on it. I have to look for the stuff though.

    Say wha?
    Despite my sarcastic charm, I've always tried to be a straight shooter.

    Unless I'm missing a joke somewhere, cuz I need some more coffee

    Forks are back on and test driven.
    As she sits now:


    If the pink grips don't do it for ya, or are holding you back, I'll swap em out for something a little less mannish.

    Totes. It goes over obstacles pretty well too.
    Big wheels roll.
