This is cross-posted from the i-bob/RBW list.

This is one I never thought I'd get rid of, but I have to admit it's not the right size and it's not getting much ride time. I bought this from John Fitz, but I'm the second owner. Here's the original color/build (https://www.facebook.com/FitzCyclez/posts/958878954200930). I reached out to have him build me a fork similar to the one that was on this bike, but instead he happened to have this frame/fork available. He re-powdercoated it for me, built the custom rack and added a bunch of braze-ons. Here's what's included with the sale:

1) Frame/Fork
2) 1 1/8" Silver Chris King Headset
3) Custom Front SS Rando Rack with integrated light mount and wire guides
4) Velo Orange 26" 60mm Smooth Fenders with Ruthworks Mudguards
5) Matching Green Powdercoated Truvatic 110mm 26.0 Stem
6) Maroon Powdercoated xxmm Stem 31.8 (this was the previous powdercoat color)

Frame/Fork Details:

TT - Columbus 28.6 8/5/8
DT  - (unknown) 31.8 9/6/9 or 8/5/8
ST - Nova 28.6 9/6/1.2
SS - 17mm true temper
BB - 68mm BSA Paragon
Paragon Dropouts front and back
Fork Blades - Disc specific Nova fork blades 1.1 wall thickness
Fork Crown - Pacenti MTB Fork Crown
Braze-ons - lighting guides on fork blade and under downtube, three bottle bosses, pump pegs on non-drive seatstay, low-rider front rack mounts, 

Takes a 27.2 seatpost, 28.6 front derailleur. Built around 160mm rotors front/rear. 135mm Rear spacing, 100mm front. It clears Compass/Rene Herse Rat Trap Pass 2.3" Tires easily. I never ran with 650b, but was told it would do 650bx48 just fine. I've used this as a drop-bar enduro all-road and an upright basket cruiser with Nitto Albatross bars. It handles great with a rear rack and big saddlebag (I used a large Sackville). 

Frame is in great shape, all threads clean and no dents/dings. Never been crashed. The powder coat is probably 8/10. There's some worn away on the drive side chainstay, and the non-drive side inside chainstay from the disc rubbing. There's a few other spots where the powder coat has been rubbed away, but overall pretty good.

Frame/Fork/Headset/Rack/Fenders - $1400 plus shipping
