Mike Kerkmann
Selling my 'go to' bike for the last 4 years. It has been carefully
maintained and has never let me down. Compares to bikes costing between
$4000 and $6000
'05 Medium (5'8" to 6' tall riders) Intense 5.5 in light blue MADE in the USA!.
Down tube has had an inner tube zip tied for protection since I got it.
New bearings installed last fall, only 2 rides since then. One small
dent on a chainstay from a fall, not a structural concern. A few other
scratches (mostly from riding on car racks). Frame was $1950 new...
Fork is a Magura Laurin with the Albert selector switch on the bar. This is an $800 fork. Smooth, light, and very adjustable (compression, rebound, and platform adjustments).
Chris King Headset.
XTR Dual control shifters / hydraulic brakes (M-960 series)
XTR Rear derailleur (M-952 medium cage)
XT Front derailleur
Thomson stem, 120mm
Race Face XY seatpost
TruVativ Stylo GXP crankset (large ring removed for extra clearance, lower weight, etc. Large ring is included.)
XT M-765 Tubeless Wheelset upgraded with Titanium XTR cassette body.
Answer Carbon Fiber riser bar (some rubbed spots from a long trip in a trailer full of bikes....).
Complete bike weighs in around 28 pounds. I hope I don't regret
selling this as much as I regret trading away my Waltworks 29er a couple
of years ago...
I am in Bend.
Cheers, Mike
