2004 echo team long for sale

[echoteamforsale]

here is my 2004 echo team long. i am the original owner, i bought it from Tim at trialsin. it sat in my garage for a little under two years, then i rode it for a bit and upgraded it and now its been sitting in my garage for about another year and a half.

upgrades:

bonz ffw mod cranks
truvativ top-of-the-line 128mm DH bottom bracket (i think its called a platinum DH pro? i forget.)
Magura marta front brake with plazmatic pads (this is probably one of the only pairs of these pads left in existence)
White ENO trials FFW
redline chain tensioners
oury lock-on grips

i think thats all of the upgrades but there might be more. its been awhile since ive even seen this bike so i dont remember whats original and whats not.

pics:

please note that almost everything that looks like a scratch in the photos is just a tiny scratch in the clearcoat of the aluminum. most of them are invisible without the camera flash. the actual frame is in 100% brand new condition (no scratches are more than paint-deep).

this pic shows my POS wood veneer chainstay guard. i havent seen it in a while but i think the chainstay is in good condition. obviously i'll remove that thing before i ship the bike, unless you want it. also in this pic you can see what a dremel tool and a table-mounted grinder can do to a rim. it works better than it looks.

these next two show the bashguard and downtube, both in great shape. i never really used the bashguard. mainly this bike was used for pedal kicks in my driveway.

im asking 650USD.

for payment i'll take any form of payment you can give me (except complete BS ones) but some forms might take a little bit of time to clear. money orders are probably the easiest way.


EDIT: i've decided i'd be willing to make a transaction through ebay or with paypal if you want. i have 100+ feedback on ebay so if youre worried about me being a scammer ebay would be the way to go for you.

what's the weight on that?

[echoteamforsale]

according to my bathroom scale:

me = 157.5 pounds

me holding bike = 178.5 pounds

so the bike is 21 pounds, plus or minus about half a pound.

heres some extra info i just sent to someone:

im located in winnetka, illinois.

its 650 shipped if you pay me in a way that doesnt cost me anything, but paypal charges 2.9 percent and ebay charges about 5 bucks plus about 3.5 percent. if i were to sell it through ebay and paypal it would cost me over 40 dollars. paypal (but not ebay) would cost about $20. that might be the best way to go if you have paypal.

my ebay name is ".........." <---censored (pm me if you really need to know)

maybe i could send you an ebay message or something so you know its me?

my mom and my sister use it so if you look at the auctions ive won, dont be surprised.
