UPGRADES:
Bike is brand new with a short ride to see that everything is functioning perfectly. Everything you see in the pictures is included.
We purchased these bikes anticipating installing a mid drive ebike motor. We have since upgraded our rail trail bikes to ebikes and feel someone else could better use our great fat bikes. There is a lot invested here, these are retail $2500 bikes, and better than brand new, no issues, no problems.
Here is the upgrades we did.
-Changed out the Microspline drive train and replaced it with the new heavier duty 11-speed Shimano Linkglide CUES U8000 shifter and U8000 derailleur with Jagwire LEX SL heavy duty cables, put on a Shimano LG700 11-50 tooth LINKGLIDE cassette, this is the new Shimano trekking XT level setup (don’t confuse it with the lower spec U6000 and U4000) that according to Shimano gives you 3 times durability and strength. We also installed a Sram PC XX1 heavy duty chain (Cleaned and Secret Chain Blend Hot Wax dipped) to compliment the excellent Sram Eagle X1 Dub crankset and Steel Eagle X1 30T chainring. This bike is as durable as money can buy and is totally EBIKE ready should you want to go that way.
-We swapped out the Terrene Cake Eater 27.5x4.5” big tires for summer Cake Eater 27.5x4” tires that are closer to 3.5” actual width. These tires have the 20km ride on them. We also installed a set of RideNow ultra light weight TPU puncture resistant inner tubes and to top-this off put in 250ml per tube of the MucOff Innertube puncture sealant, this gives us great puncture protection and a fast smooth light rolling tire
-We have INCLUDED the original brand new unused takeoff Terrene Cake Eater 27.5x4.5” tires and innertubes. (a $400 value)
-Includes the New original KS e20i dropper post, cable and remote.
-Installed New Satori Falcon Aero Loop Bars with a stem extender to give you a more upright seat position, and easier control with a slight sweep back.
-Installed New 2A RED 5 Deg, 5mm Stem
-Installed 2 New SKS Topcage water bottle cages, with double bottle holders on each side of the fork side, these are the best holding bottle cages I have ever used.
-installed New Odi Ergo OC1 grips for less hand fatigue, great comfort and a sure grip, and also a Shark Tooth thumb rest
-installed a New high db Rockbro thumb bell, no bike on the trail should be without a bell
-installed a New RBRL heavy duty height adjustable kick stand
