• I have to move flat and thanks to space reductions, I have to unfortunately downsize my bike fleet.

    So I’m selling my Enigma Etape titanium road bike. This is the 2012 caliper brake model, with 27.2mm seatpost. I’m sure you know this bike, if not, it’s Enigma’s best-selling model. It could be used for commuting, light touring, training, long distance riding, whatever. It was my commuting and bike-packing machine and it never let me down, a smooth allrounder with rack and mudguard mounts. Just Google for “Enigma Etape review” for a lot more positive reviews.

    More info on the 2015 model (identical geometry I believe except for a 31.6mm seatpost) can be found at http://www.enigmabikes.com/collections/versatility/products/etape-caliper

    Due to time constraints, I’d rather sell the bike almost-complete (minus stem, pedals, seatpost & saddle) because I really don’t want to have to dis-assemble the Di2 groupset and accordingly it is competitively priced.

    1. 2012 56cm frame, purchased from what was Tokyo Fixed. Seat tube 52 cm, top tube 56cm. I am 180 cm tall with short arms, so I had to make do with a 9 cm stem.
    2. Enigma Etape carbon fork, with space for 3 cm of spacers.
    3. It comes with complete Ultegra Di2 (10 speed 6770, including Ultegra BB) finishing kit. The battery is mounted externally. Naturally I’ll throw in the charger.
    4. Ultegra chainset is compact 50-34 to a 10 speed 11-28 cassette.
    5. Deda Zero 100 bars (42 cm width)
    6. No seatpost, stem, pedals or saddle because I figure you’ll want your own. Although I’ll throw an unused Fizik Aliante Delta or Charge Spoon for an extra £20 if you want.
    7. Wheelset is 32 hole black H Plus Son Archetypes to Hope Pro 3 road hubs with Sapim CX-Ray bladed spokes. Ultegra 11-28 10 speed cassette attached. Tires are Continental GP 4 seasons (25mm)
    8. To sweeten the deal, I will throw in at no extra cost a Tubus Fly rear rack (http://www.tubus.com/product.php?xn=9) that fits the bike perfectly and a Alpkit Stingray frame bag (https://www.alpkit.com/products/stingray) that was custom sized to fit above the two water bottles.
    9. Needless to say, the bike was always kept indoors and maintained regularly. Used, but not abused.

    These days the frame goes for £1400 new. I’ll let everything (frame, groupset, bars, wheelset, rack and bag) go for SOLD.

    Pickup only in London. Evenings in E8, work hours in EC2.

    Any more questions, please holler.

  • great price

  • yep, this is a steal.

  • mega bargain!

    GLWS!

  • Oof. This is a bargain-just bought the same model second hand and paid more for 6700 group minus the Di2 and was still delighted with it... Really nice smooth, stable and responsive ride to be had although I've gone back to campag.

    Good luck with the sale, although I don't think you'll need it!

  • someoene will be happy, i am after an ll rounder frame and it's my size.

  • Titanium is overrated.

  • Still the best deal since I bought mine on here.

  • Ti is just different, even though I have a special fondness for it over other materials. In regards to this frame, the Ti advantage is relative light weight (I think this 56 cm frame weighs about 1.4-1.5 kgs) and the fact that it's a brushed metal finish means that one doesn't need to babysit it. So this was a nice all-weather all-rounder for me.

  • In the process of replying to a couple of you (sorry for late response, the forum used to alert me when I received PMs but not anymore, so I missed your messages)

  • another pm in your inbox

  • FYI: provisional sale (awaiting payment and collection), orderly queue formed. As before, apologies for delayed reply on PMs, the old forum was far better in that area.
