Took me most of the summer to get this frame. Frank and Bruce were very helpful. I dont ride as much as I used to. A second All Mountain bike doesnt make a sense anymore. So here it is.
The mediums look to be sold out on the Sinister website. This also has an upgraded shock. This frame is beautiful. I hate the idea of selling it so come get it quick.
Brand new MEDIUM Gruitr frame (never built)
Fox DHX 5.0 air shock (was on a demo frame but in NEW condition)
2" stroke gives 4.5-5.5 inches of travel
$1400

Didn't you read? Its never been built up, that INCREASES the value.

He has a DHX air shock, which is more money than the stock Float R.

Ridefaster is correct. MSRP (which they sell for everywhere) is $1400 with an intro level Fox Float on it. Mine has a DHX 5.0 (big difference). Not to mention that Sinister is listed as being out of mediums. I will sell it without the shock for -$150. Those who have nothing better to do than talk sh1t, read the listing before making yourself look like an idiot (or look like an idiot if thats your thing).

Once you take the frame away from Frank or Bruce - It looses value. Even the used better shock doesn't make up for that.
Wait and see...

I highly doubt that. Its not a car. New is new. And as far as I know, they dont have any mediums. So this is a great option if thats the size needed. Also you cant usually haggle with a retailer. $1400 is just a starting point. Im certainly not dumb enough to think somebody is going to just pay the asking price. Everybody likes to haggle.
A side note on the shock, It came direct from Bruce. You would never know it had been on a demo if I didnt mention it.

$1385 according to the website. So Im off by $15. Its still a great chance to get a medium with a better shock for less money (since its open to negotiation).
