Having a clear out so check out other items
2008 Salsa El Santo frame with a Rockshox Monarch RT3 rear shock.
Frame is Medium size
Takes 26" wheels up to 2.3 tyres.
Left on a decent headset (Cane Creek), a Hollowtech II bottom bracket and a seatclamp.
Rear shock is fine. No issues. Rebound settings work as they should, seals seem good.
100mm travel.
Was a top end bike back in the day with a superlight Scandium frame, setup for 100mm travel each end, aimed at cross country/singletrack.
I most recently had as a 1x11 with a dropper and it was brilliant fun.
Loved riding this bike but time catches up with everyone.
Would make a great little project for someone.
Couple of images of geometry etc in the pics
It's not meant to handle big stuff & geometry is not slack like modern bikes.
As long as you know that and don't try and ride it like an enduro bike it's an absolutely ace frame.
