2004 Devinci Hucker

Original 2004 Devinci Hucker that was designed and actually "manufactured" in Canada (not made in China). The bike underwent a complete frame off restoration with the chain stays and seat stays repainted (back-end of the bike). The down tube and top tube only got paint touch-up's to preserve the original decals that are on the bike. The frame is straight and there are no cracks.
What Davinci said about the bike - Hits the mark as arguably this is the strongest hardtail frame ever built. Marketed as a freeride hardtail, this frame will do anything from trail riding to dirt jumping to downhill.

Forks are an open bath design, that means the oil in the lowers can circulate in the spring section of the fork. On sealed units like air forks, the lower oil is there only to lubricate the fork. On an open bath design the oil is also being used to damp the forks movement making for a simpler design.

Awesome review of a truly 'do-it-all bike!!!! I can't agree more. I still ride my 2004 Hucker as my main bike and ride everything from jumps to trails to DH runs with it. Not to be picky, but that appears to be a 2001 frame.

Thanks for the feedback. From the research I did, I believe Devinci went to Marzocchi’s in 2003 and then to Hayes hydraulics in 2004 which this one was originally equipped with. Always a best guess on my part though.

@@johnsbikerestorations The 2004 did come with a dirt jumper 3, that's correct. The 2004 model had the unique matte tan paint. Something subtle to note, in the earlier Huckers, the down tube has the convex facing downward, where as the 2004 has the convex facing upward. The headset gusset is hollowed out a bit on the 2004, and from my understanding only the 2001 had the rear brake mount between the stays. Regardless, beautiful bike, great review. Just happy to share some chat about these amazing bikes.
