Enigma Ethos complete bike, frame or (possibly) parts for sale

Hi all,

Apologies for the re-post from back in May. Still looking to sell. Have dropped the asking price.

I am looking to sell my 2013 Enigma Ethos, ideally as a whole bike or possibly frame only, or groups of parts. It is an XL sized frame (I am 6' 2" tall) and a good fit for me, as you would hope for a custom built frame! I attach details of the measurements in a CAD drawing. More details about the frame are here: enigmabikes.com/products/etho­s. I think it is still more or less the same frame in 2015.

The frame was built using Columbus Life tubing, and finished in Pantone 5395-c, a dark, smoky blue-grey colour. I requested that no Enigma decals be applied, apart from the headtube badge. The bottom bracket shell has the Enigma logo embossed on the underside.

The total build cost was around £3,400.00. Finishing kit is mainly a combination of Campagnolo Record and PMP. It includes Campagnolo Record Titanium 10-speed shifters, Record brake calipers, a Harry Rowland built wheelset (Mavic CXP33 with PMP hubs); Campagnolo Centaur 12-30 cassette and Centaur 10-speed chain and a very hard to come by PMP XP-Road crankset and headset. Speedplay Frog Ti pedals (not shown in the photograph), Thomson seatpost and stem, Nitto bars, a Fizik Kurve saddle, and Continental Gatorskin 25mm tyres complete the build. I include a full list of parts and the approximate prices I paid for them (I have used lower prices where items have reduced in price since I bought them).

I am looking for £1,500.00 for the complete bike. I am based in Tonbridge, but may be able to deliver within reason. I would possibly consider a frame-only sale, or the sale of groups of parts but I am not keen just to sell individual bits and bobs, apart from the pedals which I don't use. I reverted to Shimano pedals to save me having to get different shoes to ride my other bikes.

Just wondering.......what is your price for frame and forks??

Hi there. Cost for frame and forks with the internal cable routing was £1,304.00. PMP headset sourced directly from the UK importer and good egg Rohan Dubash was £97.00. Someone was asking £625.00 for a similar frame but with (not very nice IMO!) polished dropouts, fork crown. I would take £550.00 for frame, forks and headset, or £495.00 for frame and forks only. It is in great condition, no obvious marks that I can see. Clear plastic chainstay protector has been on it from new. Probably ridden 100 miles max.

Oh yes, just to add, the Columbus tubing sticker was applied over the clearcoat and has peeled off a bit. Could supply a new one if required.

Lovely bike. What's the reason for selling?

Several reasons! It is a lovely bike, I enjoyed buying and building it, but I'm not making the most of riding it for various reasons (chiefly laziness). I have three bikes, two of which (this one and a 2008 Viner Passo) are very similar sort of Audax/light tourers, plus an early 90s Klein Pinnacle and I want to consolidate them all into one more versatile and less precious tourer/adventure type bike, something like a Soma Wolverine or Surly Straggler that can handle a combination of paved and unpaved surfaces.

Understood mate. Look forward to a thread about that do-it-all bike :-) GLWS, really nice
