I have one too many xc 29er bikes at the moment. This is probably the most versatile in that it can be a very decent xc 29er if someone is looking for that, but I've also used it as my winter road bike, a flat bar gravel bike. It's just a really good all round bike.
Currently it's set up with a Kinesis carbon rigid fork and I've got gravel tyres on the MTB wheels. Worked perfectly for me as a winter road bike and the occasional gravel rides. I want to hang on to the groupset, so the whole bike isn't for sale, but if you have some running gear you could get it set up into a complete bike relatively easily. This is what is for sellz...
Vitus Rapide 29er frame and headset (FSA). Medium size. Takes 148mm boost wheels and has great tyre clearance for modern xc 29er tyres, but I've also run it with a 650b x 2.8" plus set up.
Kinesis carbon 29er fork. 110mm boost. They're 100mm suspension corrected. Oodles of clearance for all XC 29er tyres. I've also run it with 650b x 3.0" plus tyres, again with loads of clearance.
Vitus seatpost (31.6mm I think, I'll check) and Vitus stem and flat bar (not the stem/bar pictured). Vitus lock on grips.
SLX12 chainset with a 36T chainring and Shimano HTII BB.
Stans Crest S1 wheels. As far as I can tell these are Stans Crest rims on Stans branded hubs. Shimano HG freehub, so takes 10/11 and non microspline 12 speed cassettes. I've been running them with a 12 speed sram cassette. They're currently set up tubeless with Specialized Pathfinder Pro gravel tyres (700x42c). I've probably got some old 29er tyres for it if you want those too, although I'm don't think they're tubeless or matching.
I've also got a really basic Bontrager saddle in black that I can include if you want it. It might work for you, but you'll probably want to fit your own anyway. I'm hanging on to the Fabric one.
Red bottle cage included.
Pretty much needs brakes, chain, cassette, shifter, rear mech and a gear cable (and probably your own saddle) to be a great do it all bike.
Looking for £xxx. Can probably deliver within a sensible diameter from Maidstone for that too. Also, will be in the Suffolk area in a week or so, for additional delivery options. PM if interested and I suspect we can sort something out within reason.
Pics of complete bike (as I'm not splitting it until it sells) but only above items included. Any questions, just ask. And thanks for looking.
