Full Suspension Downhill Mountain Bike, super strong Excel 7005 aluminium alloy frame.
Location: South Central England - London
Swap Value: £2.000+
Description:
Hand built aluminium frame, superb components, cost over £2500 to build.
Never crashed or run in loose sand, Very fast well balanced bike, all adjustable suspension so it can be riden on flat or uphill with ease. I took this bike to Moab, Utah, USA and it was the best looking bike on the mountain, I only did two thundering runs and my forks blew (888's) they could not be repaired so I hired a $6000 Giant, but this bike was way way better.
It can fly downhills with rock solid stability as well as a lovely balance. It is a DH bike but will storm around town and though the local woods and parks all day.
It has:
8 speed shimano XT gear mec
Shimano HB-MC12 front hub
Parallax rear hub
Big Earl Bontrager rear
Modus Ti Bearing set
Tranz X stem and ends
Welgo Alloy X peddles with full steel cage
Roost tapered alloy bar with strengthener.
"THE" indestructible fenders n red
Shimano "wave" two finger levers set on Low
fully braced brakes (stronger and with way more feel than most disc setups)
Top Gun DH-C full forks with 5 inch drop and individual adjustment.
The front light has a speedo / computer built in
Excel seat with single piece curved stem.
plus loads more.
It is a real head turner in the street and with with a set of second hand 888rcs would probably win some competitions - due to it's shear stability and the invincible feeling it gives flat out.
Not really interested in Cash, as almost anything would be an insult considering the amount spent and the time getting it sorted, I would just like to swap it for something fun, ideally a Trials motorbike.
