FS - Silver Joe Appaloosa 55 (Bay Area)

[Stuart Lovinggood]

Was holding off on posting on the group since I'd prefer to sell locally, but I know there are a lot of you in the area on here and CL has been dry.

FS is my silver 55 Joe Appaloosa. Mostly stock build, except for the list below. It's in good condition, saw moderate use in Austin and less use the last few months since I moved to SF. Pics attached but you can see my fill write-up on CL here: https://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/bik/d/2017-rivendell-joe-appaloosa/6439855634.html

Differences from stock build:
- Maxxis Torch 29x2.1 tires - Cushy, supple and have a thick tread pattern for longevity. Great for gravel, dirt and pavement.
- Aluminum Virtue handlebars - these bars provide slightly more reach and slightly less sweep than the original Choco bars. I felt a little cramped with the Chocos and found the flat front edge to be not as aesthetically pleasing. I have since sold the Choco bars on the list.
- Ergo grips
- Brooks Cambium C17 Carved saddle
- Planet Bike Cascadia 29er fenders
- VP-001 pedals
- Zefal full-sized frame pump
- Schwalbe Smart Sam 29x2.1 tires, pair included with purchase. Great in the dry season for trail riding. I started running Smart Sam in the front and a Torch in the back and the combo was priceless.

Asking $1800 for the full setup OBO. Prefer to keep it local as shipping is maybe my least favorite bike activity but can work something out if you're jonesing for it.

Appaloosa is sold. I will continue to "Riv it" with my Big Ben'd and Bullmoosed MB-5.
