How can you even attempt to sell that thing when you can't even spell the names of one components correctly?

That frame was NOT designed to be ridden super-hard offroad, especially not with a 7" fork. I saw a dude at Sea Otter one year with an 8" dual crown fork on there. We laughed and said we should chip in to get him flowers for his hospital room.
Yikes.
You can actually upgrade the rear shock on those too, it's not that bad of a ride, kind of like an old Cannondal Super V.

That said, we used to ride them off the loading dock at the Giant warehouse sometimes. Good times...

Story behind the bike. I was given it complete from a friend of mine for free. I had all the parts laying around. I put $400 into it and had a SWEET xc bike. Then I got wheels for it... then I found a 29er. I just sold the wheels, and have most of the bike still. I might build it up again one day. I had a fox air shock on the back for a while, it rode better then most of giants new bikes.

I never felt it was that flexy, had a lot of fun riding it. The important thing was I had fun riding it. I couldnt afford a new frame, so it was perfect.

Sure the ad is stupid. Anyone that is calling PSP stupid for riding and having fun on his is retarded. Laugh if you will, but it accomplished what it was supposed to for him. It made him have fun. Period.

my wife has a warp, the frame is pretty light (with shock i think it was bout 7lbs) and nice low standover/short TT for very little money, she is light and short, doesn't ride too hard and it works great. the geometry was pretty nice on the older ones too. i'll have to snap a photo of it. we do plan on upgrading some time in the future but she needs to get back into the swing of things. she also DH'd it for a while with a 6" Jr.t.

will you take $1500 for it or a trade for a Uzzi?
Not only does he spell the names wrong, he has his parts spec wrong, that is not a "totum". That thing is worth 7-800$ tops and only for the parts spec. Want to buy my Cove Gspot for 4500$, I mean, I'm sure the bike complete cost at least 4000$ a few years ago but some of the parts are new.

I think I probably have an older (but brand new) SID Air rear shock that's the same size as the stock shock. It's yours if you want it, and if I can find it,, you'd just need bushings for it.
It does make the bike ride a bit better.
