Specialized Epic Expert Carbon 2009

My lad would love that Specialized, not far from you either.

Might be a bit big though as he's only 12, not had his growth spurt yet!.

It’s a lovely looking bike but no good unless he’s 5ft 7” plus.

The bike is available to pick up from near Tadcaster, North Yorkshire, sorry no postage available.

2009 Model Specialized Epic Expert FSR Carbon. Size M, 17”.
Frame - Fact 9m Carbon/M5 Alloy rear triangle.
Fork - RockShox Sid Race 100mm Travel .
Rear Shock - Specialized Mini Brain 100mm Travel.
Brakes - Avid Elixir R Carbon levers.
Wheels - 26” DT Swiss X420SL.
Bars - Race Face Diabolus.
Rear Derailleur - SRAM X0 9 Speed.
Front Derailleur - Shimano SLX.
Shifters - SRAM X9.
Tyres - Maxxis High Roller (front) Maxxis Minion (back).
Saddle - Charge Spoon.

The Fork was serviced by Cycle Technology Wakefield in January.
Both front and rear wheel bearings were replaced this year together with brake pads all round.
The bike is in good condition, it is clean but could be better, the frame does have several chips which I’ve photographed. The original RRP was around £2800!

I own a 2010 Epic with the alloy frame and can confirm that the Epic is a fantastic cross country mountain bike, this one is quite a bit lighter than mine and has a slightly better spec.
The bike is available for viewing and if you have any questions please ask away.

Asking £595.

Hi is this bike still for sale?

Thanks

Hi is this bike still for sale?

Hi, yes the Epic is still for sale but the owner (even though he hasn’t seen it for months!) is not willing to accept offers, he would rather keep it, unused and using up space in my Garage!

 

[Animal Magic]

How much does he want for it?

 

[Animal Magic]

I have the same bike although its a large rather than medium. Its been a very good MTB and this one looks like its in great condition.

 

[Spiderweb]

How much does he want for it?

Hi, he wants £550 but as I mentioned the tight git won’t accept offers!
The bike is exactly as you see in the photo but now doesn’t have pedals.
I too have an Epic, superb cross country MTB.
Send me a PM if you want to come and have a look.

 

[Animal Magic]

Did you get my message?

 

[Animal Magic]

Sorry whats a PM?

Charge him rent. He is taking the piss expecting you to not only sell it for him, but also to store it for him all this time.

 

[Spiderweb]

I’ve sent you a PM (private message).
