For Sale: Surly Troll Rohloff - Pimped out touring bike
Posted by
Hi LFGSS!
Long time no see...
I have a Surly Troll with a Rohloff hub for sale. *£1700*
Pics: http://imgur.com/a/ZWvjb#0
Built by a friend planning a large tour in 2012. He didn't go on that big tour and I planned my own so I bought the bike off him. Only that tour didn't plan out either; this bike is in desperate need of a good owner who will put it to good use. It's going bloody cheep. New this bad boy would set you back few Gs.
I will throw in a pair of Avid Single Digit Ultimate V-brakes and Ultimate leavers if this is sold by Wednesday 9th July. These have about 1000 miles on them and work perfectly. RRP was around £400 for the set.
Great for touring any distance or a hardy commuter bike.

Basically if you know your stuff, you'll know this is bomb proof. The wheels were built by a guy at Condor Cycles. The rest was put together by a mechanic with many years experience; it couldn't be dialed in any better.
The bike has seen about 3000 miles, so the hub is almost due its first oil change. Apart from that it's maintenance free.
These brakes are amazing, the rim is a coarse tungsten surface and the ceramic pads are rock solid.
Thats my B17 Ti saddle and generic post in the pics but its not included. Only for test riding.
Serious buyers will get a good buchers and spin. Collection from N2, North London.
Postage will be possible. I can box and post to the UK, insured only of course.
Let me know what you think!
