Nicolai ION 16

Item description: Nicolai ION 16

Selling my beloved and well-maintained Nicolai ION 16 in Ramen size XL.
It has always been professionally cared for and maintained by me, but has also been ridden appropriately and has corresponding signs of use

There is absolutely no maintenance backlog!
Sit on it and have direct and long-lasting enduro fun.

I changed the frame bearings in winter 2023 (but it wouldn't have been necessary, they easily last 10 years because they are double-sealed, and because Nicolai... ;-) ).
Shock absorber service/fork service also freshly done/done in winter 2023/24. Not ridden since then, as I have 2 other MTBs!

The geometry is changed with an angled headset and the steering angle is modern 64°!

The frame has been retrofitted with holes and threaded rivets for mounting the bottle cage.
The small Fidlock bottle fits perfectly (see photos), the middle one could be squeezed in.
This makes it the only ION 16 with a bottle cage ;-)

The equipment is very high quality and carefully selected.
Many new parts!
