The bike lacks a front hub!
Wheels aren’t built, you "only" get three rims.
The third rim was bought as a spare, but as the rims held up – I never needed it, so it's brand new.

The bike is reasonably light. Frame is 1700 g bare(!). The drilled Robsson rims are 800 g a piece. The full build comes in at 12.5 - 13.5 kg, depending on tires and tubes.

I'm asking for 1505.- GBP incl. shipment (6 - 10 days, climate compensated, 56.- GBP)
It's in Switzerland.

I'd also like to play guide to the buyer for a long weekend in the Swiss Alps in the midst of winter.

Gian, have you not offered it to Pete. He'd have a bike for next years trip then

He knows about it

....runs off to put the Lottery on

Best of luck fat tyre kicker

I was going to try and sell it for less, but after last nights check on the bike I realised in what a good state all parts are. Also the frame still looks like new - after all titanium is bloody amazing in the way how it doesn't age.

Have to say, I'm bloody tempted but I promised myself any new fatbike would need to be up to all the latest standards - and Bluto compatability.

Would be the same here. Its 170/135 mm qr hubs aren't really up to date, whilst they still work just fine.
Quite sure the frame won't take a bluto/mastodon etc.

If you ever want to run a Rohloff though you can. I’ve have a 170/135 and have no issues with it. Plan sometime to swap over to a Rohloff XL at some stage.

Many of the components still available - as in first post
