2008 Turner RFX, Size XL, in Bronze
This bike, known as "Kathleen," is a custom build on a replacement frame provided by Turner in 2008. DISCLAIMER: I am woefully uninformed regarding any bicycle made after 1999 and so you may spot differences in the installed components vs. what I have below. If so, please let me know so I can correct the listing. Thanks in advance.
Components:
Walkaround video here.
Condition:
The bike rides well and basically operates as it should. Cosmetically decent. Shifts fine. Brakes need adjustment. Suspension action is smooth. Chain wear is reasonable. Small dent in the top tube.
Price:
We're trying to get Cindy the most we can for this bike. It's going on eBay, Craigslist and Marketplace soon but we'd love to see it go to someone on here and thus from for MTBNJ members we'd ideally like to get north of $1,000 (or best offer ... pending me doing more research into the bike's potential value). It's a chance for you to get a great bike with plenty of miles left and help the widow of one of our community’s most respected members.
The bike is located in Northfield, NJ (zip 08225) but inspection (serious buyers only) / delivery in most of NJ can be worked out. I'm pretty flexible and should be able to make myself available at your convenience.
Shipping is available at the buyer's expense. Bikeflights will be used and everything will be packed professionally by the good folks at Halters Cycles.
I will be listing Frank’s other bikes (here first), and a bunch of his old parts (some of which are already on my eBay store: https://www.ebay.com/str/themtbrecyclist).
PM here for my contact info if interested.
Thanks!
