Context: Always mountain biked, love the sport. Ever since I picked up snowboarding, mountain bike trailing just doesn't do it for me anymore. I thought I would pick up downhill mountain biking.
I am 5 foot 10, and I would preferably like something as rigid and durable as possible. If this isn't an option, I have an old bike I can swap in parts to a frame.
The guy just posted it and from what he told me, the bike is 2 years old. He's selling it only for $600. Here's the description:
It's a fully custom Santa Cruz bullit frame built from the ground up.
-fox vanilla rc rear suspension
-marzocchi bomber fork with dampening and preload adjustment
-kenda nevegal tires 2.3 front, 2.5 rear
-avid 6" rotor disk brakes
-hussefelt cranks
-blackspire dual slalom chain guide
-promax brake levers
-jag wire carbon brake lining
-Shimano deore shifter and gears
As the title says, why shouldn't i buy it? It does seem too good to be true. He invested well over $2000 in frame and parts alone. He's giving up the sport in favor of automotive modding.
