Quick update...

No idea how old it is sorry, got it off ebay a year or so ago (practically unused it seems, apart from the dent). I'm guessing its 2004-2006. I built it up and rode it about 4 times. Bearings and shock appear to be in near new condition.

Hello, just happened to be searching google and spotted someone else sold one of these here yesterday so thought I'd give mine a try. Here's some pics: I know I haven't posted here much but I've been trying to sell this on my own forum for a while (link...
