For sale: My sweet travel bike


I have a new (full suspension) travel bike in the works, and I’m getting rid of this one to (cough) pay for it. Here’s the vital info:
-29″ wheels, disc or v-brake ready, packable into an airline legal travel case (available for an extra $300) with S&S stainless steel couplers.
-24.4″ toptube, 18.5″ seat tube (center to center)
-71.5 degree head angle, 73 degree seat angle, 12″ bottom bracket height, and 450mm chainstays. All-around XC ready, built for a rider up to 200 pounds.
-Clearance for 2.3+ tires.
-Rack mounts.
-Few minor scratches and grease/dirt from a life travelling the globe, but no dents or other significant damage.
-Includes a 27.2x400mm Thomson seatpost, Cane Creek Solos headset, and LX front derailleur. Full build kit available at my usual screamin’ deal prices!

This package would set you back a solid $1700 or so new, but I’m selling it for $900 including shipping (in the continental US, others must pay). Full warranty for the purchaser.

More details and pictures coming soon – email for details.
