afternoon all

anyone had a santa cruz blur lt nicked in the huddersfield area?

this bike on ebay seems too good to be true: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=321114395537

he says he's only ridden it on roads/light trails - who would splash £3k plus upgrades to potter around on it? he seems to have sold a fair few other bikes and bits too...

plenty round these parts....

Looks like a complete dogs breakfast of a build (mismatched rotor brands ffs) and the rear mech cable has popped out of the ferrul.... Could just be a parts assembly to sell?

It's one of those bikes that feels light, but is built like a tank because of component quality. It will take whatever you throw at it and come back for more. Handles like a dream on the trails and is good up and down hill.

Sounds like standard mountain biker BS

Probably a regular STW contributor

Certainly doesn't scream "thief" to me

No, he says he mostly rides road and light trails and has a hardtail for that. He doesn't state what he's ridden the Blur on

Reckon you might be jumping to conclusions there, although I might be wrong

Maybe he does a bit of buying and selling? Doesn't mean its hot though

Or could this be a stealth advertising thread...

Or has one of fred's sleeper cells just been activated?
