Hi all! I've been laid off from my job, so I need to sell a few toys to make ends meet. I am asking $800 for the bike, but no reasonable offers will be refused. I am selling my 2005 Transition Preston FR. The bike is a size small (15.5" frame). The Preston was designed for the agressive trail rider that loves to earn their way to the top by pedaling but also needs a bike that is burly enough for freeriding on the way down. I currently have it set up as an all-mountain ride. The bike is kitted out as follows:
Frame: Transition Preston FR, 15.5"
Rear Shock: Romic Twin Tube (800 & 900 lb. springs available)
Front Fork: Marzocchi AM-1, 130-150mm
Stem: Race Face Evolve XC 90mm
Handlebar: Race Face
Headset: Cane Creek S2, 1.125"
Cassette: Shimano 11-34
Chain: SRAM
Rear Shifter/Derailleur: Shimano XT
Front Shifter/Derailleur: Shimano XT
Front Brake/Lever: Avid Juicy 7 7"
Rear Brake/Lever: Avid Juicy 7 7"
Cranks: Race Face Evolve XC 22-32-Bash Ring
Bottom Bracket: Race Face Evolve XC
Tire - Front: WTB Weirwolf 2.3
Tire - Rear: WTB Prowler XT 2.3
Hubs: Shimano XT
Rims: Mavic XM321
Pedals: Some generic flat pedal
Seatpost: Thompson
Saddle: WTB Pure
Grips: Lizard Skins Lock-On
This bike has been lightly ridden, and mostly just lift-serviced runs. I am a bike mechanic, and have meticulously maintained the bike. I also have a NOS Blackspire chain guide that I will throw in, if the price is right. Shipping is available, but would be entirely at your expense. If you need lighter rear springs, you can buy them from Romic directly. Thanks for looking!
