Hello All,
I'm looking at selling my fixie. This is mainly due to the fact that im saving up for a car (im only 17) and that i've hardly ridden it since building. It was great fun, however im more into my MTB. Road ridings not really for me :'(
Frame: 57cm Peugeot Carbolite 103 Road Frame, dating from 1982/3
Wheels: SingleSpeedComponants Workhorse 700c Flip Flop Wheelset. Pair of Michelin Dynamic Classic tan wall Tyres mounted with new Innertubes.
Drivetrain: Original Peugeot Crankset with a 52t Chainring. An 18t Fixed Cog and 17t Freewheel are mounted out back, which are driven by a wide 1/8 Chain. Brand new BB was also installed
Brakes: Original Weinmann Brake Levers connected to new Acor Brake Calipers.
Finishing Kit: Original Seatpost with a brown Charge Spoon. Handlebars come in the form of some original GB (Gary Burgess). A basic retro Stem and brown Deda Bar Tape finish the package.
All the original parts are in great condition. Few marks as expected (the bike is over 30 years old!) Everything else was brought brand new in the summer of 2014. Doubt ive got more than 250 miles on it since building :( Really impressed with how it rides
Headset and BB both have loads of life left. Sealed bearings in the wheels are smooth as butter. Brake pads also have plenty of life left. Rear tyre is starting to wear. Please note, i will not be supplying the pedals pictured, however i have a set of cheapo plastic flats which i can include. I will also include the inner 46t Chainring and a shorter Stem.
Im looking for around £350 + Postage, however im open to offers and looking to sell quickly. Any questions please get in touch!
