This could prove to be a total bargain for some one....
A customer bought this bike in the other day, he bought it off a mate who had it from new and rode it four times. The new owner has ridden it less since buying it 5 months ago. In his own words they are both 30 something guys who think they can ride DH MTB's but can't! So he wants rid of it and wants to replace with a more suitable bike.

The frame is in cracking condition, hardly a mark on it, the rest of the kit is sound and really just needs some TLC (it's been sat around in garages for a while). The rear whel has gone all soft buy I'll sort that, they only real issue is the shock, the rebound has gone so that'll need replacing or fixing.
The guy wants as close to £400 as possible. Considering the fact it's seen about twenty hours riding and never really had the wheels off the ground, I reckon it's a bargain. I really thought he'd want closer to £600 for it!
Spec is Stinky frame, Drop off Triple forks, shimano hubs on 321 rims, Truvative cranks, XT rear mech, LX front, Deore shifters, SDG saddle, Gazzi tyres. It sizes up as to about an 07 Stinky medium.
Essentially get the shock sorted and it's ready to rock, instant quality DH bike for well under £500.
