Gunnar Crosshairs '11 62c-t st x 59.5c-c ht: $1,400 picked up w/in 50mi of NYC Metro area; I'm not considering shipping at the moment due to hassle and covid stuff...

This is a very low-mileage 2011 Gunnar Crosshairs frame and matching steel fork, with complete 1x build, Charcoal Silver (kinda Gray). Very nice rider, I just have too many very similar bikes and not enough trail/gravel to justify having so many. And need $$$ to land my white whale...

Original build/spec sheet attached. Basic dims:
ST: 62.0cm c-t, 56.5cm c-c, 60.6cm theo
TT: 59.5cm c-c
HT: 189mm
Stack: 632mm
Reach: 401mm
Saddle Height in Pix: 81cm
Standover: 34"
BB Drop: 70mm
130mm x 100mm; QR
27.2mm post
ST: 73-deg
HT: 72.5-deg
Tire Clearance: true 700x38mm max at rear

The Crosshairs has been in Waterford's/Gunnar's line for a long time. I'm not familiar with the early geometry, this one is what I'd call 'crovel? I just made that up...Quick enough for 'cross, but a little more groad-ish and versatile than a true 'cross race frame; road-like 70mm bb drop i/o true-cross 55-65mm, for example. Creature comforts like dual bottle cages, "normal" cable routing, rack/fender bosses (but not under seatstay bridge or crown), brazed-on rear housing stop. I think current spec fits a little wider tire, and drop is increased to 75mm.

Rides/handles very nicely, both on tarmac and trail. We don't have gnarly gravel around here, but we do have upjutting, sharp and annoying Jersey rocks; Crosshairs handles it all well.

I've got well under 1,000mi on it, after almost 10yrs, so, yeah, too many damn bikes. One small paint chip on the top of the drive-side chainstay, a smaller one on the non-drive side, and a very thin scratch-line from the top of a front derailleur scratch. Otherwise pretty much clean and sparkly like new. No dents, dings, scrapes, pings, pecks, yadda yadda yadda.

Majority of the parts are either new or near-new, mostly unused.

Built 1x with medium-high parts:
SRAM Rival 11spd 1x brifters (near-new)
SRAM Rival 2.1 rder - GX (near-new)
Shimano FC-700 crankarms 175mm; 36t ring w/BBG bash guard (near-new)
SRAM 1171 11spd chain (near-new)
SunRace 11-32 11spd cassette (new)
Shimano Ultegra 6800 hubs/H+Sons Archetype rims (near-new; one small fell-over ding on rear rim, non-drive side)
Vuelta qr skewers (new)
Panaracer Pasela 700x35 tires (new)
Avid Shorty Ultimate cantis (clean)
Thomson Elite seatpost (some marks/zigs)
Specialized Toupe saddle 155 (some wear)
Thomson seatpost collar (near-new)
Nitto B-177/Noodle 48cm bars (light marks)
Nitto UI-5GX stem 110mm (near-new)
Tektro cross levers (near-new)
FSA sealed headset
Shimano BB-R60 bb
Generic-ish pinned platform pedals
What'd I forget?

A new Crosshairs frame/fork is $1,450 these days, not sure how long Waterford's queue is at the moment.
