For Sale: Racing Mountain Bike
 
I'm selling my 9 month old race bike.  The following is the 
rundown on all the parts.  It was built up from the frame with 
a custom parts pick.  I raced half a mountain bike, and almost 
a full cyclo-cross season on it.  I take very good care of my 
bike, and thus it's in good shape!
 
1991 Klein Rascal 20" - red to black fade paint, chrome fork
Wheels:
        Mavic M231 rims 32 hole (23mm)
        XT hubs - black
        14/15 gauge double butted spokes
        Alloy nipples - red
        Nutrak/Madison Airseal tubes - presta
        Smoke Compe 2.1 rear tire (kevlar)
        Joe Murray Maximum 2.2 kevlar front tire
        Ringle Skewers
Drivetrain:
        MacMahon Titanium spindle (Klein sealed BB)
        Cooks cranks - 181 length, silver w/ black spider
        SR Platinum 34 and 48 chainrings
        Onza 24 stainless steel granny ring
        Sedis ATB Z chain
        XT 12-28 casette
        XT front and rear deraileurs
        XT thumbshifters
Brakes:
        Dia Compe 986 - black, front, canti
        Suntour XC9000 SE - black, rear, canti
        Scott Matheuser pads
        Dia Compe SS-5 levers (the grippy drilled out ones)
Cables & Housing:
        All cables are Weinman, all housing is black XT
Other:  
        Flite saddle - black
        IRD Seatpost - black
        Syncros cattleprod stem, shotgun bar, black
        Control Stix bar ends - black, long/bend
        Oury grips - purple
        Ringle seat post quick release
        XT headset - 1"
        Avenir bottle cages - the lightest that don't break! 
        
 
Optional:
        Shimano SPD pedals - just lemme know if you're interested
        The avenir bottle cages are kinda optional, I need to 
                find out where I can get them before I let them
                go, cuz I won't touch anything else, I've broken
                specialized, ringle, profiles, and others, these
                are just as lite, but never break!
        Scott suspension fork - um, the only way I'd sell it to
                you is if you just had to have it.  I now race
                on Rock Shox, and had bad luck with the Scotts,
                in other words, I don't want any unhappy 
                customers, and this bike is too killer to let
                that happen.
                  
This bike's worth about $2100 (if you bought it all mail order), so 
sincere offers only please.
