QLD Found - XC Hardtail Frame - Large

[Minlak]

Item: XC orientated Hardtail frame Large
Location: Bundaberg
Item Condition: Needs to be operational - happy to have coated if need be
Reason for selling: Stupid Template they make is use
Price and price conditions: Sub $1000
Extra Info:
Ok so I have the Norco Torrent but I have set myself some goals this year that I will be doing a lot of Gravel Rides - I dont want a Gravel Bike I have experimented with these before. I want a 100-120mm travel hardtail - If its boost and I can use my current 27.5 wheels sweet if not I will just get new stuff.

Will probably move on the Torrent to fund this as with the Ripley / Trance less likely to use the Torrent anyway.

Will consider new if you want to throw some ideas at me - hoping to find stuff in stock though if new option taken.

WOW ! Budget of $1000 +-10%.... 5K frame, the distributor is here in SA, a good bloke.

Awesome frame but if I had that budget for an XC/Gravel bike, I would have been looking at the Curve GMX.

What does the ultimate all-terrain adventure bike look like? The GMX is the best bike you could ever get lost on. Meet our Titanium Grovel Monster Cross.

Funny shit.
Maybe you should pick up one of these on special too:

and you’re going to need some surface-specific kit too:

Budgets are only ever there to see how much you can blow it by.
I seriously considered buying the frame I listed about 3 years ago from overseas. If you buy one I’ll buy your torrent frame

Seeing if I can sell torrent whole until new frame arrives - will probably part out then - can reuse brakes and drive train - will need new forks etc

 

[Scotty675]

Did you really buy the open one?

500%+ is the winner

[Elbo]

[Scotty675]
