WTT: Mountain bike for Longboard

[TRedVR6]

This is a freeride full suspension mountain bike with adjustable rear suspension (4.5", 5.15" and 6" travel). I used in 2001 regularly, but only rode it twice in 2002 and once in 2003. It has an INTENSE Comp 60 DH 2.70 front tire, Gripshift 9 spd shifters, Thompson stem, ODI Lockjaw grips, Azonic Loveseat, and Odyssey Triple Trap pedals. The rest of the bike is stock - specs are listed below.

I'd like to trade for a singlefin longboard in the 9'6 to 10'0 range. I am also willing to sell the bike if anyone is interested. Make me an offer.

How much would you want for that? Have you ever rode it on trails? How does it ride?

those bikes are sick. I had a kona stinky for a while and my buddy had almost the exact same giant. A long board is definetly worth that, wish i had one to trade.

The bike was ~$2000 when I bought it 3 years agao. I am looking to sell it for around $800 or trade for a nice old school single fin longboard (ie Dewey Weber, G&S, Robert August, etc).

I rode the bike on trails the first year that I got it (2001). I then moved to the coast and haven't used it very much since. I rode it 2x in 2002, once in 2003 and haven't used it at all this year.

This is a great bike for big hits, drops and downhill. It can be riden crosscountry, but it is heavier (and stronger) than the typical full suspension cross country mountain bike. Reducing the rear travel and stiffening the rebound dampening helps when climbing. It is also somewhat sluggish in tight singletrack.

I would trade my 9'8" Spectrum Noserider but the condition most likely isn't what your looking for.
