Jan 13, 2022XL Gravity 27.Five SS
$325 USDDo you hate your legs? Have a knack for pain? Maybe you enjoy suffering and want to show everyone else on the trail how manly you are? Or maybe just SingleSpeed-curious and want to give it a shot before dumping a ton of money on a one gear pain machine? Then I have the bike for you!
Selling my XL Gravity 27.Five SS. I completely overhauled it so the only remaining original parts are the wheels, fork, and frame. Frame is solid but has some cable rub and chips in the paint but no cracks or dents.
It’s a great bike and pedals strong when you lock out the fork. Geared 32t front 18t rear. The tires are great and the upgraded hydraulic disc brakes make a world of difference over the stock cable pull brakes. Oval chainring helps you conserve precious energy which once you ride a single speed you will realize is crucial. Dropper lets you have some fun on the descents and wide bars give you tons of stability.
This bike has handled everything I’ve thrown at it including pump track, Brumley forest, Carolina North forest, and Carolina Outdoor Education Center. Selling because it’s just a little too big for my preference, as I prefer a smaller bike to throw around. Should fit someone 6’+ although under 6’ 2” you won’t be able to make full use of the dropper. I have a Bontrager seat on it now but have a few other seats I can swap out if you would prefer a different one.
