    I bought the bike from a fellow farkiner about 6 months ago and it was in perfect condition when I got it.

    The bearings were all reconditioned and the bike was professionally serviced.

    I then bought a bunch of new parts for it to get the weight down (the old bomber forks and 5th element coil shock weighed a ton!), as follows (all items 08 unless otherwise spec):

    RockShox Revelation 426 Dual Air forks (Pikes but with QR)
    DT Swiss Shock (vgc 2nd hand)
    Avid Juicy 5 brakes + 6" discs
    XT Cranks / BB / Front rings
    WTB Speed Disc rims
    Ti Seat (Sette brand, little known)

    Then serviced it at Bike Addiction (the best North of the bridge).

    The bike now weighs a little over 13 kgs and can go anywhere. It's fantastic. control at speed is unrivalled. Jumping, brilliant. It handles like a dream.

    The problem is, I'm 6'1" and while I generally love a bike slightly smaller for me, this is just too small. I need to sell it and will probably buy a large Heckler ... or my back will not live me in 10 years time.

    Specs:

    Frame: Santa Cruz Heckler - Medium
    Shock:
    Forks: RockShox Revelation 426 Dual Air
    Hubs: Deore
    Rims: WTB Speed Disk
    Brakes: Avid Juicy 5 (still have tags on) with 6" rotors
    Shifters: Shimano Deore
    Front Deraillier: Shimano LX
    Rear Deraillier: Shimano XT
    Seat: Sette Ti (Can supply SPD Bel-Air)
    Cranks/BB/Rings: Shimano XT (or can supply Holzfeller cranks/BB/36t ring & Gamut Bashguard / Chainguide OR e.thirteen 38t/bashgard/chainguide)
    Tyres: Choice of Maxxis - High Roller XC, Ignitor, Crossmarks
    Pedals: V8s, Scott SPDs or Crank Brothers Mallets, your choice

    I have a garage full of parts so if you need say a longer stem or something ask, I may just have it

    Pictures (excuse the dirt, just took it for a spin & grin):







    Any questions please ask!

    Above prices includes postage anywhere easily accessable in Australia (that is ... up to $100).
