Mountain Cycle San Andreas - $100

[RussTafari]

SOLD!

For sale was one Mountain Cycle San Andreas Classic frame and misc. parts; but it's since found a new home.

This was built and ridden up until last fall; but it's been sold and I hope I don't regret it.

In good shape, normal wear and tear (bit of cable rub, some minor dings). Ridiculously light yet burly. I think it has 4.5" of travel. Frame comes in one size, but sub-frame has 2 positions for adjusting overall cockpit length. (For comparison, I'd say it's roughly equivalent to a 19" frame.)

Includes:

• Shimano XT M751 Front D.
• Stratos Helix air/coil shock w/rebound and lockout
• Bontrager 31.6 seatpost
• Easton EA-70 31.6 seatpost (in eye-puking red)
• IS Disc Brake mount
• Can throw in a headset if needed

With all these parts included, the frame is basically ready for you to strip down your current bike and build this up.

Maybe you want to ride something different. Maybe you want to build a (second) bike on the cheap. Maybe you secretly envied not owning it whenever you saw me riding it. Whatever the reason, now is your chance to have this finely hand-crafted, Made-in-USA, full suspension steed.

First dibs to STR, then onto CL if needed.

PM me if interested; I'm in Aliso Viejo / Lake Forest area.

nice frame! too bad so many of us are not working right now..

you did forget to mention the size.

 

[Pho'dUp]

size? and is there a disc tab in the back?

 

[RussTafari]

you did forget to mention the size.

Right, sorry. These frames are one-size; the sub-frame (?) has an adjustment that configures the bike into one of two different 'sizes'.

Basically the seatpost assembly shifts fore/aft into each 'size', and bolts in place.

But for comparison I'd say it's probably equivalent to a 19" frame.

size? and is there a disc tab in the back?

IS Disc brake tab in the back.

wow all that beef and only 4.5":?:

nice frame though.......yeah what's the size?

"Only"? :-s Most XC/AM bikes have around 5" to start, and I bet that the extra 0.5" wouldn't be missed.

Plus 4.5" of travel is 4.5" more than a hardtail!

i meant no dissrespect i was just saying that frame is pretty beefy looking like a DH bike and i would have expected it to have more than 4.5" i was just shocked thats all

it's a bad ass looking frame though :bang:
i would love to buy it but i have already been put on "double secret probation" by the wife and was told not to buy any more bikes.......or parts for bikes#-o

You got PM....

That may be just the ticket to get my kid off the couch.....:lol:

I always wanted one of those years ago. The frames remind me of Moto GP frames.

 

[mtnbikerfred]

Funny, They reminded me of the Crosstrac Sonoma County, Only the RM had more money/lawyers.

 

[reflux]

Still available? I rocked a SA for one Summer back in college. It wasn't until I had gotten rid of it that I realized just how much fun it was.

And for just $100? Seriously.

Sold!

Sold!

Glad to hear of all the fond memories. For what it's worth the guy who bought it had owned one before.

It shall ride again...
