Random stuff for sale, plus: sick family alert

First off, Sarah has a bad cold that has lingered for almost a week, and Bean now has croup (super fun night last night) so work will be slow today.

Second, I have some stuff for sale!

Waltworks singlespeed/geared 29er frame. This was my personal bike in 2011. I am not much of a singlespeeder anymore, sadly, and I have a bunch of other bikes to ride, so it needs a good home.

Vital details:
-69/73 head and seat angles.
-23.5″ effective toptube, 20.5″ (center to top, it’s about 19″ center-center) seat tube, 6″ head tube, 41.5-43.5cm (adjustable via swinger dropouts) chainstay length, 12″ BB height.
-Built for a 100mm (1 1/8) fork. Will also work fine with an 80mm if you want a little snappier handling.
-2.3″ tire clearance with the wheel slammed, quite a bit more if you pull it back a bit.
-Black Cat swinger dropouts with derailleur hanger (and the frame has full cable stops if you want to run gears).
-No dents or damage, though she’s obviously a bit dusty and obviously been ridden for a season or two.

$700 gets you the frame, or I’m happy to quote you on a full build with all-new parts.

Fork is sold.


Velocity Blunt SL wheelset. XT 6-bolt hubs (quick release), 32 spokes laced up 3x, Blunt SL rims. Brand new and never ridden. $175, or $150 with the frame.

Avid Elixir 5 brakes. Not the top of the line, and the front needs a bleed at some point soon, but if you want to get some cheap, functional hydros, here you go. $40 for the set (front and rear, no rotors).

Package deal: Buy everything for a cool $800!
