Rather sad to be selling this on, but didn’t get on with riding fixed and not really sensible to ride with a freewheel and only a front brake. This has been up before – I bought it off Pooface and I think he got it off Pistoffski. There are a few paint chips here and there and the paint is generally showing its age, but there is no need for a respray (unless you want to!). There is a small ding on the top tube that was there when I got it, but frame and forks are rock solid. Only other to mention is that some numpty (i.e. me!) tried to drill the rear bridge for a back brake (it was certainly feasible at the time!). The operation had to be aborted, so I filled in the resultant hole (the repair is much cleaner than the original drilling attempt!). I have reflected this tomfoolery in the price of £350 for the whole bike (I think I paid £430).
Price is for the complete bike (minus Shimano pedals, unless required) and would prefer to sell complete unless enough interest in splitting. I work in Clerkenwell/Farringdon for pick up.
Details as follows:
• Frame/forks – Oversized steel – 56.5cm seat tube (c-t); 56cm top tube (c-c)
• Tange njs stamped headset
• Sugino RD2 Cranks
• 46t Stronglight Chainring
• New Black Izumi chain
• Tiagra front brake
• 110mm Pro Chrome Stem
• 42cm Deda Piega Drops
• Black Sram S500 Brake levers
• Unbranded Silver seatpost
• Specialized Saddle
