Triple threat! Principia MSLE Pro 26" MTB (medium I think)

I bought this on a whim a few years ago when I was going through a bit of a Principia and Klein obsession. The frameset was NOS with just a couple of marks from storage (the worst one underneath the down tube). Built it up with some fairly decent bits, rode it for approx 100km in the dry, then left it pretty much unused since. The frameset takes V or disc brakes, but I set up with disc. It was recently serviced by a professional and the brakes seem more effective than any of my other bikes (probably because a professional serviced them).

I think the frame is a medium and a 2005/6, although I can find very little info out there. ST is 17.5"/44.5cm, and the TT is around 56cm. It has 26" wheels and is very fun to throw around, although I think it is too small for me. It weighs 10.8kg, which the internet tells me is similar to Canyon's XT hardtail. Parts below:

Principal MSLE frameset 17.5"
Easton EA90 wheelset (bought NOS and very light)
Manitou Markhor 100mm forks (bought brand new and we're about £300 iirc)
XT 3x9 groupset
KCNC headset and bars
Schwalbe Smart Sam 26x2.1 (using tubes but I think tubeless)
Ultimate USE carbon post and Ritchey saddle

No idea how to price this. It's in very good condition, and the forks/wheelset are basically new. Also, it's a Principia! Lets start with £480>430. Bike is in Leicestershire, but I will be in London at various points between now and 30th December. Can post at cost.

Better photos to follow in daylight (lovely sparkly paint!)

Lovely bike and great price. I had one of these and I think Principia made the best alu frames. I raced my Attitude and snapped it and I crashed my Msle pro hard and it didn't. @doubleodavey for a Principia royal flush ?

Yeah, it's pretty crazy light, but also seems absolutely solid.

Was it you that was interested in the pink Rascal? It might be time for me to move it on...

That was me. The hot pink Rascal is so good. Just bought another bike a couple of weeks ago so won't have bike funds until at least March. I'd probably never ride the Rascal just gaze at it. This is probably a much "better" bike

Very nice. I've already got a million bikes but only one wife and I think 1,000,001 bikes might mean I would have no wife

Glws!

Price dropped!
