FS: Salsa spearfish frameset / reverb / bar stem
Posted: Sat Jul 29, 2023 10:48 am
Mk1 salsa spearfish. It’s been superb for big cross country days out and more challenging bike packing trips.
If you like your bike looking pristine then stop reading now. Lots of cable rub and missing paint from bag straps etc, but all mechanically sound. Pivot bearings replaced not long ago.
Size xl, but old school geometry so a reach of 438mm and plenty of standover (I’m 6’1” and you wouldn’t want to be any taller).
Selling with:
- Superstar components -2deg angleset headset (definitely helps ‘modernise’ the geometry and improved the handling)
- BB which allows the use of standard shimano cranks without nasty press fit. I think it’s a wheels manufacturing one (but not certain without taking it out!)
Looking for £250
In bishops castle (Shropshire) if you can collect or could work something out to post if that’s no good.
I have a hope evo2 / stans crest rear wheel & tyre to go with the frame. On stripping the frame I noticed a small hairline crack in the free hub body, suspect it's been there a while l, but you'd probably want a new one. Let me know if this is of interest.
Also
Rockshox reverb (non stealth) 31.8 to fit the above £45
Raceface affect 50mm x 35 stem and 820mm x 35 atlas bars £30
