Apologies if this isn’t allowed but I didn’t see anything in the rules prohibiting it.
I’ve gone back and forth on selling this beauty for almost a year now. It’s one of those bikes that deserves to be ridden hard and often, neither of which I've ever really done. Between a busy schedule, foot surgery and a growing respect for gravity, I’ve decided it’s time for someone else to enjoy it.
This bike has maybe 700 miles total since new, with less than 20 miles ridden in the past year. I mainly ride it for cardio from street to trail in Virginia (mainly Crump Park but it's been on Poca, and all of the great downtown spots). It’s been serviced a few times by Conte’s and Carytown Bikes, and it’s in absolutely mint condition…no surprises, no stories, just a seriously well-kept Santa Cruz ready to rip.

Extras
I’ve got a few sets of nearly new tires and grips (and another seat option) that I’ll include.
Would prefer local pickup (Central Virginia) but not opposed to shipping.
$4250 OBO
Edit: added location

“Prefer local pickup”
Doesn’t include location.
Post this in FB marketplace and pink bike. A global forum not designed for selling isn’t going to work well.
Also it’s a nice bike, but $4k+ for a 5yr old bike is wildly optimistic.
Beautiful bike, my 2 cents, I bought my lightly ridden top spec’d 2022 cc Hightower eagle group set for 2800 last year, no carbon wheels tho.

Kudos to trying but Reddit isn’t exactly local to just you, the US or even just this hemisphere.
Then to top it off, attempting to get 4K for a 5 year old bike when you can literally buy a new Tallboy for that price that would include a lifetime warranty that you surely aren’t going to provide, not to mention the myriad of online retailers selling their brand new closeout Tallboys for just over 3K…
I’d venture to say my criticism would be mild compared to what others on Reddit would probably say to boot…
