Fat Chance Buck Shaver

Retrobike Rider
Preparing to sell my majestic purple/blue Buck Shaver... it's pretty big and has lots of nice stuff on it - black full Ringle wheelset; sexy SIMS Litening crankset; turquoise Tri-Aligns; Control Tech stem/post/bar ends; SRP bolts; XT groupset. Both frameset and wheelset in wonderful condition. Just needs a fresher saddle to make a BOTM contender. Will post up serial numbers/sizes and lot's of fresh pictures in the morning.

Will be looking for £1100 posted within the UK.

DETAILS:

Massachusetts built Fat Chance Buck Shaver in size L with the factory BOI Tange fork
Serial 28334 L

Sizings -
Head tube 122mm
Seat tube centre to centre 485mm or 19"
Top tube centre to centre 600mm or 23 1/2"

Chris King No-Threadset in black
Sims Litening cranks with Race Face chainrings and SRP crankbolts
Answer Hyper Lite purple bars
Avid purple levers and Avid Tri Align turquoise brakeset
Control Tech purple bar ends/seat post/stem
Shimano XT groupset with 8 speed cogset
Ringle hubset and skewers on excellent condition Mavic X517 rims

The bike is in marvellous condition and looks 9 months old - the paint sparkles in the sunshine. Decals are all there - some have a few marks. No dints to frame or fork, a couple of scrapes on the lower chain stays (all shown in pictures), the rest are small marks from storage etc. Wouldn't take much effort to be a premium garage queen - definitely needs a fresher Flite.

I imported the bike in 2006 from Nebraska where it was first sold from Cycle Works in Lincoln, NE (original shop sticker intact) - I think I just added the bars/levers/brakes. I've ridden the bike offroad three times - once at a Dr S retreat; a Peaks recce with Max (when I weirdly put a pair of blue SIDs on it) and at Pierre's lovely VTT celebration in south France.

It won't come with the Ritchey tyres shown - I'm running low on skinwalls!

Not prepared to send this bike abroad I'm afraid - so UK sales preferred. The bike is on display/for sale at Ken Foster's cycles in south Manchester.
