Hi everybody!

So I've decided to part with my Appaloosa. I have been thinking about this for a long time and I find my self riding my other bikes more, it's a shame this bike just sits in the garage. Plus I want to get a new MTB so I'm selling two bikes(this one and a 1991 GT Karakoram, not really appropriate for the list but send me a message if interested).

About the bike.

Frame & fork: 58cm Joe Appaloosa with the beautiful double top tubes AND disc brake tabs added by Walt Works. The missing paint around the tabs has been clear coated over. Paint has a few scratches here and there, nothing major, just honest use.

Headset: FSA, the one that comes with the Rivendells, honestly kind of a cheap headset. I have a new Tange I'll include as well. Can even swap it if you like.

Stem: Crust/Nitto, 31.8mm, 75mm, silver

Handlebars: Crust/Nitto Shaka bars, silver

Bar Tape: Blackburn, white

Brake levers/Shifters: Campy Centaur 10 speed ergopower levers, swapped lever blades for Athena(says 11 speed but they are not really 11 speed, just 10 speed with 11 speed levers, looks cooler!)

Brakes: Paul Klampers, campy pull, black with orange knobs, Paul brake adapters. Avid Clean Sweep G2 160mm Rotors

Rear Derailleur: Shimano Deore RD-M591, black,(yes, this bike is a campy/shimano mix, works great!)

Front Derailleur: Shimano Deore XT Triple

Cassette: Sram 9 speed, 11-34

Chain: Sram 951

Cranks: Shimano Deore FC-MT60, silver, 175mm, 110/74 bcd, 46t/30t(46 mounted in the middle position, 30 in the small ring position)

Bottom Bracket: Shimano UN55 68 x 118mm

Pedals: Speedplay Drillium! Black

Hubs: Profile Racing Elite 6 bolt disc, 32h, black, QR, HG 11 speed road freehub body, Shimano XT skewers. I'll also include the end caps and hardware to convert hubs to bolt on.

Rims: Sun Ringle Rhyno Lites, 32h, black with machined sidewalls

Spokes/nipples, DT Swiss Competition, black, DT Swiss silver brass nipples

Tires: Continental Race King 29 x 2.0, currently set up tubeless with Orange Seal

Seat Post: Thomson Elite, silver. I'll include the Nitto post as well.

Saddle: Soma Hishou, black

Front rack: Nitto Mark's Rack, silver with Wald 137 Basket zip-tied to it of course!

Fenders: Planet Bike Cascadia 29 x 65mm, Black

Cables and Housing: Cables are Campy, shift housing is Shimano, brake housing is Jagwire compressionless. I'll include two extra brake and shift cables from Jagwire also.



$2500 is my price. Local pick up in Portland OR would be great but I am willing to ship. Feel free to contact me with any questions.

Eric Swain

That would explain why I'm getting so many emails asking for permission to view the pics! Ok, got it fixed.
