Felt like she deserved another post since she is now in her final form....

 

- Fork at 110mm travel to steepen head and seat tube angle for better climbing

- 20mm riser cSixx bar to give me the same stack height as when the fork was at 130mm. Bar also a bit wider - 760mm, 720mm was just too narrow.

- Colour coded decals for the fork and bar from cSixx.

- Maxxis Ardent Race 29x2.35 and Ardent 29x2.4 tyres for added volume and comfort seeing as it is a hardtail.

- Chaintamer, just to quiten the bike a bit.

- Speedsleeve Ranger - a dropper post friendly saddle bag that holds tube, 2 Co2 cannisters, inflator, and 2 tyre levers. It doesn't move around at all and looks half decent for a saddle bag. Key thing on this bike is that I don't have to wear a hydration pack.

- The only thing I'd wanna change is the stanchions, would like them black, but at the price it's not gonna happen...

My Escapade in it's latest guise - feels kinda weird having gears after running it as a single speed for a few years. Though I'm very pleased with the bar end shifter - very easy and precise shifting - I can shift through the whole cassette super quickly.

With matching steel front fork? 

 

All attachments for V or disc calipers and panniers in place.

Anything from around twelve, depending on the build etc. If it's just the frame and fork with panniers and discs, 12k. 

 

The frames new with carbon fork were around that.

Howzit Psycotics. Been off the bikes for a couple of years, as the knees didn't enjoy the attempted upgrades...

 

Looking at offloading the bikes. What do you think it's worth?

Cotic Simple Large / Mavic SLR wheels / RS Revelation Fork / SS & Geared attachments / Ritchey Trail Seatpost, Stem & Handlebar / Avid 9 Brakes / XT shifter & derailleur 1x10 / Spez Phenom saddle. Bike is in really good shape.

 

Will post a current pic shortly.
