Intense Tracer VP Trail Bike, size medium. $2500
Intense Tracer VPP all mountain trail bike for sale, size medium. Well spec’d with a build made up of primarily SRAM X-9 and XT components, this Tracer is in excellent condition. It features adjustable travel suspension in both the front and rear via the Fox Talus 36 fork, and the frame offers two mounting points for the rear shock (Fox DHX Air) that provide 160mm (6″ inches) or 150mm (5.5″ inches).
The frame features a stout 1.5″ headtube and utilizes VPP suspension for efficient pedaling while offering substantial control while descending.
Highlights of the build are as follows:
- Easton Carbon Monkey Lite Handle bar and easton stem
- 160mm Fox 36 Talus
- Raw color medium Intense Tracer VPP frame with 150/160mm of suspension travel via (upgraded) Fox DHX Air rear shock
- XT Crankset
- XO rear derailleur
- XTR front derailleur
- XT hydraulic disc brakes
- E13 1.5″ reducer with FSA headset bearings
The Tracer lists for $2200 for just the frame and rear shock if you were to buy one and build it up yourself, which makes $2500 for a complete bike a bargin for a made in the USA dual suspension mountain bike. The size medium frame will easily accomodate riders ranging from 5’6 to 5’11.

How tall are you? I’m in the market for a new freeride bike, but i’m a tall lanky bastard.
I’m 5’10. I generally ride mediums, that size feels good to me. I know guys my height that run smalls though, because they like a shorter, more BMX feel. It all depends on your background and personal preference, as well as riding style.
That makes sense, I’m 6’5″ and generally ride larges so I think it might be just a touch to short in the cockpit for me, but I’ll do a little more research.
Save those 24s and get a proper frame! You’ll dig it on the pump tracks and DJs.
I have definitely been thinking about it.. I’ve had them this long.
Is the builders pack still available?
As of 12/5/10, yes
Hey Jason,
Are you selling that Brooks saddle posted above as well? And if so, how much?
Hey Daniel,
I was.. it is too wide for mountain biking. However, I stuck it on my townie bike and I think I might have to keep it.
Jason-
I am going to be selling my santacruz jackel. med. frame with full build. This thing is virtually new. If interested I will get some photos out and more details.
