Hope silver QR skewers, steel

Not the titanium ones, but still something that the teenage me thought was the height of bike cool.

Clearly used, with a few scrapes and scratches. £15?

Wheels

Mavic crossride front and rear 26” wheels. Quick release. 135 rear wheel spacing.

Shimano HG freehub. Disc only, 6-bolt.

Bearings smooth. Straight rims, no notable dings.

They have a pair of continental verticals (tubed) on at the mo. These don’t have much wear, but are a good ten years old, so consider them a bonus freebie.

£70 for the pair picked up from SE4. Can post at cost.

Cheers, have responded to your PM.

Next are the gears.

XT 9spd shifters, 3x9 spd, SL-m760 (I think). £30.
LX front mech, 34.9 clamp, bottom pull. £10.
XT M971 rear mech, 9spd. £33.

All in full working order.
A couple of scratches on the rear mech.

Add £3 to any for postage in the UK.

More photos.

First up are some Hope brakes. Hope M4s (I think).
I cleaned these up and bled them before stripping down the bike. I tested them out and they were working fine. Perhaps a bit less crisp than my more modern brakes, but brought me to a stop good and proper.

There is a bit of wear / oxidisation on the calipers. Have tried to capture that in the photos.

Not quite sure what to price these at, a quick look on ebay suggests some crazy prices, but also a recently sold pair at about £40 each for front and rear without the rotors. So £80 for F&R brakes, braided hoses and rotors.

SOLD

This is basically all or at least most of the stuff I’ve taken off my Yeti 575 frame which is available here.

Have tried to price things fairly, but if I’m way out let me know or make me an offer.

The forks.

More.

Frame pictures.

My old yeti 575 frame.

Classic 26” full suspension frame with 5.75 inches (146mm) travel. Medium size, was good for me at 5’10. Think it is a 2006 model.

Unsurprisingly for a 15 year old frame it has a few scuffs here and there is a bit of paint bubbling in a couple of places. Have tried to show this in photos below, it was like this for all the time I had it and didn’t worry me.

The shock and bearings are all fine and it moves smoothly. I replaced all the pivot bearings back in 2016, and it has basically been in storage since then.

I was going to strip, clean and lube the rear shock, but when I realised there was a problem with the forks I decided I'd leave that. But it holds air fine, and the damping works. I bought a kit from TF tuned to lube and replace the seals. Will include that with the frame.

Unfortunately the forks to go with the frame aren’t working at the moment. They might be fixable, but I’m not sure, they might be gonners.
They used to work ok, but I thought I’d strip and relube them before selling the bike and unfortunately now they don't return. They come back a bit, but fairly quickly pack down to the bottom of their travel, and don't return unless you pull them up. They might be fixable, but it's beyond my abilities/patience at the moment.

The stanchions are fine, there is a bit of wear on them (have tried to capture this in photos below), but not too much and no scratches.
I put new seals in, though I may have got the wrong (lipless) ones, and should have got some with lips. Will include the old seals for reference anyway.
And the lockout lever has been missing since I've had them.
Alternatively you might have some forks that would work, or there still seem to be a few new 26" 1 1/8 forks available such as these or Manitou Markhors.

But the frame is fine I’d like £120 (now £110) for that picked up from SE4, and you can have the forks too if you want them.

I also have the groupset and wheels and hope brakes that took off it which I’ll be selling in a separate thread. Update: wheels and brakes sold, but a few bits still available.

Price drop to £425 and a couple more photos.

Price drop, now £120

Sold to @7OOx23

Took these off my new bike so they are fitted but not ridden.

48/32 teeth. 172.5 mm long.

Comes with the appropriate press fit BB, and washers (not pictured).

Can’t find a price for them online. £40?

Pick up SE4, or can post at cost.

I bought this new but after two short rides decided that hip packs are not for me.

It is in pretty much as new condition. I even still have the tags.

It holds two water bottles rather than a bladder, and in my testing (mountain biking) held them very securely.

This red colour seems to be quite hard to find. I could only find it via amazon for £55.

£35 picked up from SE4. Or can post in the UK for £38.

Gone!

FREE (with some issues) inflatable kayak here for anyone who wants one.

https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/390128/#comment17122004

I got one of those cheap lidl or aldi (can’t remember which) inflatable kayaks.

Unfortunately the second time I had a go with it I think I pumped it up a bit too much and one of the ridges in the base unbonded itself. Hopefully the photos below show what I mean.

But, it still works, perhaps leans a little to one side, but not enough to make much difference.

Even without the slight issue I was never going to make much use of it, so hre it is if anyone would like it.

I didn’t properly fit the aprons and seat for the photos below so they look a bit slack. They are more taught when properly fitted.

I bought a cheap decathlon itwit pump to pump it up with, so will chuck that in as well.

Pick up from SE4.

Sonder Camino Al large.

This is the 2018 model and the geometry is here: https://geometrygeeks.bike/bike/sonder-camino-al-2018/

I’m 5’10 and it’s a good fit for me.

It’s been my gravel bike for the past few years and I’ve loved it, but have recently upgraded.

Would make a good entry level gravel bike, or a great commuter.

All in good working order, it had a new chain and brake pads at the beginning of summer. Cable discs but they’ve worked great for me.

The bar tape has a couple of tears in it that I’ve repaired / covered with electrical tape. Works fine, but you might want to replace it. I think I’ve got a pack of basic black tape I can throw in.

Tubeless set up with schwalbe g-one all rounds.

One small paint chip at the BB where my pump hit it in an off. One small point where the front brake cable rubbed a little of the paint. Both pictured below.

£425 ono. In SE4. sold

Orange Islabikes CNOC 16 for sale.

Full working order. I put new tyres and grips on it when we got it.

The usual scrapes and chips from kids usage, but nothing major.

£105 pick up from SE4, or could deliver locally.

If you listen back to the program I think they said that it is from an album due out soon. I think they also said the record label, but I can’t remember what it was.

Cheers, I reckon I’ll give it a go then. Got to be better than nothing.
