    It's Time... :(
    Anybody that knows me, knows... I love this bike!
    Price: $1200
    Ad on pinkbike: https://www.pinkbike.com/buysell/2717039/

    Ad as I wrote it on pinkbike:
    I will ship anywhere within the US.

    It kills me to sell it, but I have a 2018 Santa Cruz Hightower that is way too close to being like my Yeti so I need to find the Yeti a good home. I'm building a hardtail so I have a completely different bike outside my Santa Cruz. This is a USED bike so it has scratches. Lots of them. No punches pulled here. But it has been and still is the best bike I have ever owned!

    Yeti labeled this the CHEATER BIKE. Look up any article on the Yeti ASR 5c and you will find nothing but great reviews. This has been the best climbing bike I have ever had. Excellent on long grinding fire roads and climbs tight twisty technical singletrack like nothing I have ever ridden! However, with 5 inches of travel, it is an Enduro Bomber! I have ridden EVERYTHING in So Cal, much of Sedona, Moab, and St. George. This bike loves technical and bombs it beautifully!

    Frame size is Large and all Composite. Swing arm is a 2013 all Composite replacement. It does not have a cosmetic carbon shell on it. Yeti did this to make it lighter. For the build the bike is light.
    Rear suspension bearings have been replace (just regular service). Both Fork and Shock have been serviced as well.

    ***Comes with a lot of upgrades***

    Drive Train
    Converted to 1X11 from 3X10 (Way Better!)
    -XT 1X Crank and Bottom Bracket
    -XT 11 Speed Cassette
    -SRAM XO 11 Speed Gripshift (Trust me, you are going to dig this and it shifts like butter, I have yet to get another bike to shift like this one.)
    -SRAM XO 11 Speed Rear Derailleur

    Brakes
    -XT Ice Tech
    Note: I have the bike set up "Moto Style" meaning that the rear brake is on the left, not the right, but I will switch it and bleed it to the other side if preferred. But I would suggest trying it as it is way more efficient)

    Suspension
    -Fox Float 36mm 150mm Fork (Upgrade Fork from 32mm Stanchions)
    -Fox Float Shock
    -Chris King Headset (Upgrade)

    Wheels
    WTB i25 rims laced to Chris King Hubs (Upgraded and Bombproof!) Running Tubeless with Stans.

    Other Features
    -Gravity Dropper Post (Simple and never fails)
    -Thomson Elite Stem
    -Easton Composite Bars


    Included:
    -26X2.35 Schwalbe Hans Dampf (still in the box)
    -26X2.30 Maxxis Minion DHF (still in the box)

    As awesome as this bike is, I hope you get top dollar. 26ers are a hard sell. She/it deserves a great home with a worthy cyclist!

    I have some spare parts I can let go at a reasonable price if that helps you get your bike going before you sell Black Betty.

    This is a great bike. It’s kind of a Swiss Army knife do it all kind of bike. It’s light and pedals really well(I’ve ridden it and chased it all over the west) and is capable of comfortably riding any terrain a normal human being is capable of. Plus it’s black with blue accents so it looks bad azz...

    You get a "thanks buddy". I was going to give him parts for free and all I got was the little brown dude hiding behind a cup of coffee. :coffee: :whistling:

    Might sound harsh....don't take it personally.

    Time to Pinkbike it.....take the first $1k offer you get.

    It has more sentimental value to you than a 7 year old 26" bike has to everybody else.

    You might also be better off parting out the frame, fork, wheels and brakes. The rest of the components are just nickle and dime parts that really don't bring much return.

    It’s on Pinkbike for $1200. The Fork is too big, the hubs are too small (non Boost)
    I don’t remember what the bottom bracket size is. So I snag the brake system, cassette, shifter, and rear derailleur?

    I guess I can get boost adapters and relace the Chris Kings to some new hoops. I doubt the headset is the same. Maybe the steering stem.

    (This is me calling the plays from my BarcaLounger) ;)

    So sell the frame for $400, sell the fork for$400, re-lace the king hubs into new hoops and get some Boost adapters. The HS most likely won't transfer.

    I have three also. I’ve said before I don’t like where the industry is headed. I see a time when it will be hard, or very hard to sell a BIKE period.

    Good luck, @Mikie. Not saying you didn't... Ride every bike like you stole it. When the time comes to liquidate, it'll have paid for itself many times over in bliss. Then you can justify ruthlessly undercutting the army of bean counters and dreamers on PB, and slide back out with some PayPal funds. :sneaky::cool:

    I ride EVERY bike like I stole it. :thumbsup: But I take good care of my gear. Yeah there will be some wear. But my bikes are sound. They got be able to bomb Middle Merril and I survive, right?;)

    I don’t want more than their worth, and if I’m asking too much it’s only cuzz I don’t know any better. :)
