Built by Litespeed. A buddy at work is selling his XC race bike below. He's going go FS with a Fuel. The Macalu probably needs a new Bottom Bracket and fork rebuild though. My concerns is about replacing the bumper in the rear shock. If parts are available. I contacted Litespeed and they're looking into it.

Any feedback would be great.

Thanks.

Looks a bit like my YBB.. Perhaps you should contact Moots for replacement parts.
You can change the cartridge and the spring, and normally also the glider.
that makes a fine softtail btw.

From the pics it looks to be in fine condition

Thanks for the response BBWolf,

I was able to get a replacement elastomer from American Cycles.
