Hi,
up for sale is this large Superlight from 2005. Originally my dads, he replaced it with the newer model in 2008 and since then its been a spare/donor bike. Its fair to say my dad is a proper wheels on the ground mincer so its never been thrashed, but it did a lot of miles so is tatty cosmetically and well used.
Good points: absoutely wicked fun! this is the bike my dad used to tempt me and both my brothers back in to biking. One ride each and we were hooked again! For woodsy singletrack and general xc it is genuinely fantastic.
Bad points: its a bit shabby. The worst things to be aware of are a dent on the seatstay where my dad fell off on a night ride and dented it, and an abrasion mark from the rear tyre on the seatstay that has worn in to the alloy. Done in the same crash, it buckled his rear wheel and he rode home. Its got lots of scuffs and marks but they are cosmetic. My dad also sawed off the cable brake guides as it didnt come with hydraulic hose guides. Cant believe he did this, its not done any harm or anything, just looks well shonky! The spec is mixed; some xt, some deore, some raceface, specialized/shimano wheels etc.
Here are some pics, im after £500 ONO
cheers,
Tom
