For Sale: Titus Racer-X frame and Reba fork - Size: large.
Here is an opportunity to get one of the most respected cross country race frames in outstanding condition (apart from some minor cable rub). 18 Months old, has carbon stays and swing link, & Fox RP23 shock.
I’ve used this as my race bike for the last year and a half, with good success and many happy memories. I’ll be keeping the running gear, and selling the bare frame & shock with a set of Rockshox Reba SL forks (recently serviced and setup for 120mm travel) and Cane Creek headset.

It is my ‘second bike’ so is kept in pristine condition, and not used much for general trail riding.
Currently built up at around 25.5 lbs (11.6Kg) with a mix of XT/XTR, Hope hubs and brakes, alloy post, stem and bars. It could go lighter with some carbon bits and more XTR. I believe this is a very respectable weight for a large framed bike! It is an excellent handling bike, comfortable; and with horst link suspension efficiency that others can only dream of emulating Smiling I ran it in the Scott24 with propedal off, and set on ‘1’ for the hill climb, and recently did a lap of manly dam in 33:36, also with ProPedal off. (Not bad for an ‘old’ guy). This gives excellent compliance and traction over bumps with little pedal bob. With Propedal on, it accelerates like a hard-tail, and is still very forgiving. Paid around $3300 for frame and fork, asking $1600 for the package.
I can assist with a bike build if needed.
