I'm not exactly sure what the wheel base is. I'm sure you can find it on here somewhere. I don't have time to look. The bike is in great condish. No dents or cracks, only light scratches. I just don't have time or money to ride these days. I'm tired of eating Ramen Noodles while staring at this nice bike. Someone take this off my hands. I'm thinking $700 + shipping. Let me know if this is fair. I work at a shop and this thing will be packed up up nice and tight. I'll ship where ever but you gotsta pay. My zip is 78666.

Wow that's a steal. Looks like a 2005 or newer, I may be wrong.
EDIT - Probably an 06 or newer.

Hugely interested, how's the downtube look? I'm in Huntington Woods, MI 48070. :run:
Oh and could someone chime in on the year (geo maybe)? It looks like 06 to me

Ok. So, the downtube only has minor scratches. I know the pic sucked. My camera died and I dont want to get batteries just for one pic. Also, I have a couple pm's, so I'm going in line. As people back out I'll bump names up the list. Really, first one to confirm payment gets it.

I finally received the bike after much wait. The general lack of response from Glen after I made payment and paying beyond standard shipping fee left a sour taste in my mouth.
The bike as received is not as described. I rate the bike condition a 6 out of 10. There is a quarter size dent on the underside of the downtube. The deraileur hanger is bent and cracked. Magura brake lever comes all the way back to the bar. External botton bracket is missing a chunk of the shell.
Nothing not fixable, but I should have asked more questions on the bike condition before pulling the trigger to buy. Live and learn.

I’m already invested too much effort/money getting the bike shipped and hours fixing the bike to give up now.
Found more issues that need to be dealt with.
Striped thread on HS-33 Lever travel adjustment knob causing the lever to come back to the bar. Threads were packed with dirt.
Striped allen head on rear axle pinch bolts.
Striped allen head on Magura mounting bolt
Rear derailleur cage bent.
Thin rear cog dug deep into the Hope aluminum freehub.
Spokes way out of tension.
Water in the Magura brake hose.
The bike was flogged hard and put away wet from the previous owner.

sucks to hear. email trialspads.com for some magura tpas, they strip quite easily. most of the issues you listed can be taken care of fairly easily. and are you sure the brake wasnt just bled with water before?
