This Claud Butler Alpina 2.0 is a modern 29er hardtail mountain bike, offered as new ex-display stock. It has never been ridden and the factory protective wrapping remains on the front forks, chainstay and pedals. A couple of light cosmetic storage marks on the down tube near the crank area are the only signs of its time on the shop floor.

Ex-Display Condition
As ex-display stock, this bike has been professionally inspected by the seller's in-house mechanic to ensure it is safe and reliable. The light handling marks are purely cosmetic and do not affect performance. Buying end-of-line or display stock is a good way to get a high-spec bike for less than the original RRP, but it always pays to check the frame carefully and confirm that moving parts, brakes and gears have been serviced.
This Alpina 2.0 is a substantial step up from entry-level mountain bikes, with a premium Shimano Cues drivetrain and full hydraulic braking. The wide-ratio cassette makes hill climbing easier, and the front suspension lock-out is useful for smoother surfaces. With 29-inch wheels and WTB Ranger tyres, it is ready for trail riding, cross-country routes or daily commuting.
