Attachment 26044Attachment 26044So I bought this last week and two ride later I realize that a four inch XC bike is just not my style. Bike is in great shape, cable are all new and lubed. Fox Float rear shock (6.5x1.5) with adjustable volume, frame has three shock settings and two chain stay lengths not to mention full Enduro brand bearings at the pivots.
All told very adjustable and very efficient climber, currently set up in Low BB four inch travel setting with 16.375 Chain stay setting. Very easy to manual and well balanced, with the seat post slammed it would be a fun jumper or 4X bike (very stout) and still be a blast to ride XC. I am going to ride my old bike and simply want more travel for doing 5-10 foot drops and gaps. Open to trades/deals of all kinds as I am building up a budget bike for a friend of limited means. ![]() So if you are still getting knocked around on a hard tail here is your chance to step up to a $2k or so bike for as low as you want. (frame w' Headset, Fder, Seat post). Going on E-bay Sunday night, so act now!!. ![]() |

Yeah it's a cool bike, blows my mind how it can be so efficient climbing yet the suspension stays active without a platform or lock out. It would probably grow on me with a different fork, but the steerer on the one I had planned on using was cut too short. If there are no takers I will just hack the post and ride it but maybe it could go to a less abusive home

I think you'd get good results by selling this on mtbr and posting a link to the Intense forum. There are a lot of diehard Intense owners who would love to have a Tracer (even over some of the VPP bikes). I'd suggest to start with asking a higher price, though.

Wheels are turning

If a 4" bike is not your cup, try the new and improved Intense Tracer. This is going to be a sweet bike. 5.5" or 6" rear and up to 160mm front.

That last pic looks like its just a frame, rear shock, rear wheel? Whats the setup and lowest you'd go. I might have a friend who's interested. I dont want to jerk your chain. I can let you know within the hour. Just need some info

So it's late (in China anyway) but the bike is once again complete, some dude from Craig's is coming to check it out first thing. Told him six But I'll go five bills for STR peeps. Hell for this price you could make a decent SS out of this ride.
Cables are all freshly strung and lubed, bike is tuned up and ready to go. The only other thing will be to hack the post since I punked the QR collar from my ladies bike. C'mon folks all the hard work is done now this little mountain goat needs to be flogged. But move now, cause I bet it will be gone by noon. ![]() |
