Nice bike..

But the only way you'll get close to your asking price is by splitting.. As it's got full XTR, I can't see you having a problem selling the bits.

I'll be the first to jump on the splitting bandwagon - I'll have the shifters if you split

Good luck with the sale

Has the frame been damaged and repaired?

looks that way....

Looks like its had some gussets added

Mot sure I'd be happy with them.....

And, looking at it again, why does the weld for the headtube gusset extend up over the top tube..?

Certainly looks a bit worrying. Mr seller, care to comment??

WOW....i would like to know the story of this frame....looks like it had some war wounds. Has it been sand blasted??

Looks like it's had a huge crash/jump and cracked the top tube. It's probably took a nose dive into something.

I'd agree with the split but with the welds where and how they are I would personally retire the frame.

The reason I asked (aside from obvious gussets)

1. a weld bead that runs the circumference of the seat tube - looks like the top of seat tube & rear shock has been welded back on.

2. weld bead that runs adjacent to a factory headtube/toptube weld (?)
