I REALLY shouldn't be selling this as its feels destined to be in my possession, however the combination of impending first child and the fact that it's just a touch too small for me means it's up for grabs.
As some on here may be aware, I had this bike stolen from me in spring 2012. After about a year of continuous searching a pretty much gave up hope of ever getting it back. Then in July last year it suddenly popped up on ebay. A friend put me in touch with cycle recovery taskforce department of the metropolitan police (which i didn't even know existed) and after a fair bit of back and forth they ended up reclaiming the bike from the ebay seller and bringing straight to my front door the next day.
However, as I say, I need to face up to the fact that it really isn't my size. Plus I could really do with the cash and the space (the "baby's room" is currently overflowing with bikes).

The fade is ridiculously sick. The true colour is best represented in the second pic.
