Cheers, I will brave facebook if it doesn’t sell on here.
All the kit is (slowly) being listed on this thread: https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/390254/
But I’m afraid someone has already taken the brakes.

My old yeti 575 frame.
Classic 26” full suspension frame with 5.75 inches (146mm) travel. Medium size, was good for me at 5’10. Think it is a 2006 model.
Unsurprisingly for a 15 year old frame it has a few scuffs here and there is a bit of paint bubbling in a couple of places. Have tried to show this in photos below, it was like this for all the time I had it and didn’t worry me.
The shock and bearings are all fine and it moves smoothly. I replaced all the pivot bearings back in 2016, and it has basically been in storage since then.
I was going to strip, clean and lube the rear shock, but when I realised there was a problem with the forks I decided I'd leave that. But it holds air fine, and the damping works. I bought a kit from TF tuned to lube and replace the seals. Will include that with the frame.
Unfortunately the forks to go with the frame aren’t working at the moment. They might be fixable, but I’m not sure, they might be gonners.
They used to work ok, but I thought I’d strip and relube them before selling the bike and unfortunately now they don't return. They come back a bit, but fairly quickly pack down to the bottom of their travel, and don't return unless you pull them up. They might be fixable, but it's beyond my abilities/patience at the moment.
The stanchions are fine, there is a bit of wear on them (have tried to capture this in photos below), but not too much and no scratches.
I put new seals in, though I may have got the wrong (lipless) ones, and should have got some with lips. Will include the old seals for reference anyway.
And the lockout lever has been missing since I've had them.
Alternatively you might have some forks that would work, or there still seem to be a few new 26" 1 1/8 forks available such as these or Manitou Markhors.
But the frame is fine I’d like £120 (now £110) for that picked up from SE4, and you can have the forks too if you want them.
I also have the groupset and wheels and hope brakes that took off it which I’ll be selling in a separate thread. Update: wheels and brakes sold, but a few bits still available.
