Mongoose Black Diamond FR/DH frame, possibly a Boxxer

I debated about posting this here, but...

For Sale:
2005 Mongoose Black Diamond Triple frame - Size Large - $450
Frame is adjustable between 6.5" and 7.5" of travel. Top tube measures 24" and measures 19" from center of bottom bracket cup to the top of the seat tube. Comes with a Fox DHX 4.0 shock, FSA Pig DH headset, a Deore front derailiuer and some extra dropouts (I forget what exactly I have). If you're extra nice, I will throw in a cut down Bontrager seatpost.

The bike was ridden almost every weekend from late July through the end of October. Mostly ridden on lift serviced stuff, but I did ride it on some XC rides and even without the Pro Pedal in the shock set up right, it pedals really good for a bigger bike. There is a little bit of chainslap and cable rub, which I can send picture of if you're interested.

edit - Frame takes a 150mm thru axle rear hub

This is what the complete bike looks like:

But, I'm selling the frame only (fork + bike = $800)

Possibly for sale for the right price

2005 Rock Shox Boxxer Ride (sorta) - $350

The fork came on the frame above and is adustable 135mm -178mm. The original internals were crap and it blew it up. The internals were replaced in September with a Stratos ID Cartridge, which made the fork ride a hell of a lot nicer than the original, then it was ridden for the month of October. Right now it is valved for someone 180lbs and if you're outside of the 170-190lbs range, I think you'd need to send it to Stratos to have it revalved. If sold, the fork would come with Truvativ Hussefelt stem that fits 31.9mm (oversized) handlebars. There are a couple scratches on it, but the stanchions are perfect. If you're interested, I'll send more pictures.

The only reason I'm selling this is because I'm putting an 8" fork on my new bike. If I can't get $350 for it, I'll keep it as backup.

Fork:

Also, for $35 extra, I'll sell an e13 direct mount stem. It's adjustable between 55mm and 65mm and bolts to the top crown. I won't sell it without selling the fork.
