• 2008 Scott Spark 30 frameset (inc suspension) size L, red/black, fitted with :-
• Manitou MRD R7 forks (need service as lockout not locking after storage?)
• Shimano XTR chainset
• Shimano XTR front mech
• SRAM XO carbon cage rear mech
• SRAM XO grip shifters
• Shimano XTR cassette
• AVID Juicy Carbon Ultimate brakes
• Crank Brothers triple titanium egg beater pedals
• Ritchey WCS Pro carbon seatpost
• Mavic Crossmax SLR Disc Mtb Wheelset (Black, tubeless compatible, with 1 red spoke and red hubs)
• Easton EC70 carbon flat bars
• Syntace F99 MTB Stem
• All bolts swapped for titanium bolts
• Fizik Aliante Twinflex carbon rail saddle (not included)

All in very good condition. Some cosmetic scuffing and scratches from normal use to the frame, forks and chainset as to be expected. Used on and off for 2008 & 2009, then relegated to the underside of a blanket in the garage for 3 years – hence the sale. I'm really not sure how much to ask for this and could do with some advice. Pictures available if useful. In the UK.

You could do pretty well, but b/c you haven't been riding the bike you should expect to have the suspension seals serviced to entice any knowledgable buyers.

I am not sure of the Manitou MRD R7 fork internals, but if the lockout was working before storage, then maybe you can do a few compressions with the lockout off to make them work again, especially if the bike has been stored upside down, like the DT XRC Ltd, Merida, and WC versions before the twin shot XRC forks came out (not sure if the new ones are the same too).
